peer agreement (net): +1to ever think of Explanation: here' "cross one's mind" and "not to consider" are correct too, but I would use "would ever think of...". It is more suitable for this particular text: Islam says that the dead should be buried wrapped in a cotton cloth. But it says two pieces of clothes, not three pieces as Atta has demanded. No muslim would ever think of wrapping the dead in silk. |
