What is heaven???
heaven:
It is described as “highest place” or a “paradise”.Islam have a deep concept of heaven(jannah). The life place after death but heaven will be given to those who will do good deeds.
It is true that Muslims will go to heaven anyway. However, the issue is will he go to heaven straight away? This depends on his actions and the extent of him executing the orders of Allah Ta’ala. If he was successful in that and attained Allah Ta’ala’s pleasure, it is hoped he will enter paradise without going to hell. If he was relaxed in executing the orders of Allah Ta’ala, then there is much reason based on references in shariah that his entrance in paradise will be delayed. He may well have to endure punishment in hell for his complacency. One cannot simply be satisfied that one will go to heaven. An effort has to be made to stay away from hell as well. That is by being vigilant in fulfilling the dictates of iman. It is then hoped that Allah Ta’ala will favour us with immediate entrance in paradise. In sha-Allah.
Heaven is a reward for momins.It considered most beautiful home after death,where all the wishes will be fulfilled without asking.There will be no sorrows and depressions.Every one wants to know what is heaven and we are curious about what it is like. Only Allah knows, but He describes some of it for us in the Qura’n. What will heaven be like?
