Miraculously Preserved Bodies After Passing

Assalamu alaikum folks! I've been pondering these accounts we often hear about deceased individuals whose bodies stay untouched by decay for years. These incidents pop up everywhere. In Western reports they usually provide scientific details like parched soil or freezing climates that slowed decomposition. Meanwhile, in Muslim regions tales sometimes add how the person was deeply devoted, never missing a prayer and so on. That rubs me the wrong way since it feels heavily slanted to favor our faith without solid backing. Let me clarify: I'm a practicing Muslim myself, flawed but striving, trying to reflect on Islam's teachings, keeping up prayers and treating others well. Not a skeptic just firing shots, alright? And subhanAllah, the other day my mom relayed something wild. Those who wash deceased bodies shared about a young woman whose limbs kept shifting into a specific posture. Her mother admitted she loved music and dancing. So the position her body repeated was some dance move she'd often do. I honestly found it hard to swallow as a genuine event. Yet my mom insisted a woman giving Islamic talks told the story, sourcing it from her own institute of studies. I still lean toward such accounts being made up because the lesson they point to always feels Islamically one-sided. In my understanding, Islam aligns with logic and can be explained scientifically, even miraculous matters. So these sorts of stories make me question things deeply. Many approach them spiritually, seeing a sign or gentle nudge from Allah to live righteously yet also instill subtle dread about the state someone might pass away in. Spiritual reflection is fine but there's got to be some balance, right? It hinges on who's doing the reflecting. Someone ignoring science or lacking broader knowledge might interpret things through a questionable lens. Also, when you hear of a corpse staying fresh for ages, anyone religious could claim it as a miracle from their own higher power. So pinning it purely as Allah's special blessing because the person was pious seems shaky to me. As I understand, miracles and clear punishments used to be sent to earlier communities but ceased after our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Now reward and consequence await the Day of Judgment. Anyway, have you folks encountered or heard firsthand about such occurrences? Ever experienced something similar with a relative who passed?
