Heaven Introduction

-written by Zartasha

    You may wonder why you are here. What purpose has brougght us into the earth? Why Allah (swt) put us here in the first place and why he will place some of us in heaven and others in hell. We understand that shaitan can make us sin and lure us down in many ways and that Allah (swt) cannot allow impurities and evil spirits to cross onto other realms.

    A lot of times you might wonder why you have to struggle so much or put up with a lot of things especially if there is no hope in something that might come out of your struggles. You might wonder why you have to give up so many worldy pleasures especially if tehre is nothing unattainable. This is harder when you are wealther. However, this is not only just a personal matter, this is a universtal matter. To understand something of this nature we have to broaden our horizons and see the heavens and understand their reality. We have to place our hopes in Allah (swt). Allah orders us to divert our attention towards the hereasfter and trust in Allah for our worldy affairs. Allah (swt) explains that the more man sues his brain and his perfected scientific implements, it only increaes his wonder about the heavens and their heavenly wonders. The increase in knowledge only increases the marvel about the objects, the heavens.

    So let us begin by placing our hopes in Allah and making heaven more significant than earth and strengthen our spiritual self above our material self, working towards attaining Jannah rather than being trapped insdie the hellfire after the Day of Judgement. This seciton about the book 'Why did Allah (swt) create heaven, hell and earth' will be talking about the description of good and evil, the placement of human beings in the lower heaven, their judgement. There will be a description of the seven heavens followed by the description of the lower heaven and a description of its funciton. The human ability to comprehend heaven, the occurance of heavenly events at the timeof the judgement day and Allah\s control control over the heavenly bodies and human placement in the heavenly bodies. This will help us to understand the nature and reality of the heavens existence and insh'Allah strengthen our iman by allowing us to trust in Allah (swt)'s will and placing and strengthening our hopes in Allah who is our master and creator.
