It isn't knowledge if I haven't actually died.
Nor has anyone else who managed to provide an account of what comes after...
But still, you go on with people's accounts of this voyage:

Even if the afterlife is on a non-physical or spiritual plane then it ought work in much the same way as perhaps a lucid dream or the Matrix trilogy, alternate forms of conscious reality we're familiar with. I think perhaps near death experiences may give a glimpse into that side of things. Of interest would be the very mystical experience of these visions normally, what you have is a feeling of peace and oneness.
If you want the Muslim version then you will get more than you handle with your 72 "wide eyed companion maidens" though I think that's a cheap selling point.
So people make stuff up.
Why should I assume a particular version is indeed factual and real?
No one has ever died and came back... sure NDEs... the "near" part is the kicker... not quite death experiences. But this subject has been beaten to death on enrico's thread, so I won't say anything else.
