İslam, ölünün temiz, pamuklu beze sarılarak defnedilmesini söylüyor. Ancak Atta'nın talep ettiği gibi üç değil, iki parça bez diyor. Hiçbir Müslüman bir ölüyü ipeğe sarmayı aklının ucundan geçirmez.

to ever think of
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.
