Falling off a building and passing away
Q: My uncle fell off from his building from the 7th Floor, no body knew how it happened. He was a very kind man namazi, had done umrah only 2 months back, had taken proper care of his family, no regrets from anybody, then why did he die in such a manner. Did the Almighty punish him for any of his mistakes. Actually we don't know whether he did suicide or it was an accidental death.
