Yah. I woke up one fajr morning and thought that’s it, today i'm returning to my Creator, twas an interesting experience.

Anyway, death shouldn't be viewed a something scary. It's a reality and it's going to happen one day. I aint scared about dying but i'm scared about what state i'll be in my grave and whether if i will have ziyarat or not, that's all.

"You're only scared to die when you ain't living right."

[b]When[/b] I think about it, it's really scary.

I wasn't sure whether we should fear death or not. I heard differing opinions from people. I think I am more inclined towards: dont be scared of death coz its gonna happen to us all so live with it lol, be afraid of Allah(swt) and the after life!

It doesn't make a difference how you die, car crash, falling from a bulilding or in bed the pain will be the same depending on what person you were. When Hadrat Izraeel (as) comes to take away your soul, he will appear in two forms, one is going to be beautiful and one is going to be scary. So if you are a bad person, Hadrat Izraeel (as) will appear in an ugly form and if you're a good person the form will be beautiful. So your soul will be pulled out accordingly.

One day hazrat or hadrat(dont want to upset anybody with my spelling) ibrahim (as) asked hazrat izra'eel (as) to show his form to the un-believer the angel replied no but then Hazrat ibrahim (as) persisted. So the angel told him to turn around and then told him to turn around again when hazrat ibrahim (as) turned around he saw the angel and passed out thats how scary hazrat izra'eel (as) for the non-believers. It is said his eyes would be like fire and teeth like iron bars and just blackness.

Anyone care to explain more to me? Thanks.

Nope, when you yawn the shaytan enters. It's not exactly 72 but they 72 because the Angel visits you many times and in Arabic they use that number to mean many times, or something like that.
