In the Name of the Father & of the Son & of the Holy Spirit, One God, to whom all honor & glory is due.
May the Love, Peace & Grace of Our Lord & Saviour, Jesus Christ, be with you all!
Quote:According to Islam we believe that Adam peace be upon him was first created on Earth, and then raised to Heaven where Allah Almighty then Created Eve from his rib and they both lived there as husband and wife. After Iblis was cursed from Allah Almighty, he deceived Eve to tempt Adam to eat the forbidden fruit which caused for Mankind that came from Adam and Eve to be created on Earth and not in Heaven.
Iblis deceived Eve in Heaven... in the presence of Allah Almighty? Temptation occurs in Heaven? Are you absolutely sure about this? Perhaps you should define Heaven for me (according to Islam). Is it different from Paradise?
Quote:The pleasure of looking at Allah exceeds all pleasures FHC.
Of course! Without a doubt! Just ask any nun or monk who embrace a celibate religious vocation on earth... or the Sufi mystics who possess immense spiritual wealth! What they experience is a foretaste of Heaven - a true & intimate relationship with God. A higher & greater level of love & happiness!
Quote:What I mean to say shortly is that Allah gave his creature Yusuf (Joseph pbuh) half the Beauty of the world, can you imagine the beauty of the creator of that creature. We Muslims yearn for the day we meet Prophet Muhammad pbuh but we also yearn more for meeting Allah and see His beautiful face and this is the best we can get FHC.
Oh, it's beyond my imagination!!! It'll most definitely exceed anyone's expectations! Catholics believe that the Mass is a sign/preview of holy ones entering Heaven... but since we're agreeing on something for once, I won't get into it & risk spoiling the moment - LOL! Forgive me, please!
Quote:We Muslims also yearn more for meeting Allah and see His beautiful face and this is the best we can get FHC.
We're yearning together, Brother :) Insh a Allah, we'll be worthy enough!
Quote:Hope you get my point insh a Allah.
I think I have... thanks be to God!
Until next time,
May Allah bless you!
Quote:Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala promised us to have what ever we wish in Janna, so those who were deprived from having children in this life, all they have to do is wish for children in Janna and they will be granted insha'Allah, and of course without pain and all the things that happens to a mother in this life. You can wish for anything u want and u will get it:
Will their children be tempted & put through a test too?
:icon_offtopic: Is it Allah's will that married couples be deprived of children in this life?
Quote:The relation ship between Man and wife in Janna, will be more glorified than it is now. I cannot describe it in english there is a hadeeth that explain that relation, let me find it, translate it and put it for u In sha'Allah.
But Radiyah, why the need for 72 husbands & wives?
Great! Sounds like an interesting Hadith. Please don't trouble yourself for my sake though :)
Quote:So just imagine when Allah(SWT) promise us that whatever u wish u will get in Janna, so u can widen your imagination to whatever u want Insha'Allah. U can go shopping for free, flying anything u wish. So there are no limits to what is there in the heaveans for the beleivers.
On a lighter note, & in order to get to know each other better, what wonderful rewards would you all request? Please share :)
May Allah bless you!
Thank you kindly :)
