Easy death

Looking at the body of one's spouse after their demise
Q: My grandmother passed away a few days ago and after she passed, someone said that my grandfather is now a non-mahram for my grandmother and that he cannot look or touch her dead body.

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. What if he did suicide, will the Almighty accept him or will he be punished for the same. What should we do for his magfirat. Please help Mufti saheb. All this questions are disturbing me and my family a lot. What should we do for the almighty to forgive him?
