===Jannat va dözax qayerda?=== | |||
Islamic cosmology takes a perfectly prosaic position in terms of Paradise and [[Hell]], and places them firmly within the cosmos that consists of the heavens and the earth. The description of Muhammad’s “night journey” shows each of the seven heavens already populated with the departed prophets in Paradise. This is consistent with the Qur'ans description of the size of Paradise. | |||
{{Quote|{{Quron|3|133}}|Be quick in the race for forgiveness from your Lord, and for a Garden whose width is that (of the whole) of the heavens and of the earth, prepared for the righteous,-}} | |||
{{Quote|{{Quron|57|21}}|Be ye foremost (in seeking) Forgiveness from your Lord, and a Garden (of Bliss), the width whereof is as the width of heaven and earth, prepared for those who believe in Allah and His messengers: that is the Grace of Allah, which He bestows on whom he pleases: and Allah is the Lord of Grace abounding.}} | |||
If the heavens (to include the seventh and largest) are already populated with denizens of Paradise, the width of Paradise would be precisely that of heaven and earth. | |||
And since Paradise is on the other side of the first heaven, it follows that Hell is below the surface of the first earth, filling the spaces beneath and between the seven earths. This is consistent with the descriptions of hell as being a completely enclosed place. | |||
{{Quote|{{Quron|7|41}}|For them there is Hell, as a couch (below) and folds and folds of covering above: such is Our requital of those who do wrong.}} | |||
{{Quote|{{Quron|9|49}}|Among them is (many) a man who says: "Grant me exemption and draw me not into trial." Have they not fallen into trial already? and indeed Hell surrounds the Unbelievers (on all sides).}} | |||
Further, the direction of hell, when it is mentioned, is invariably “down.”'' | |||
{{Quote|{{Quron|52|13}}|That Day shall they be thrust down to the Fire of Hell, irresistibly.}} | |||
Elsewhere, it is described as an underground dungeon. | |||
{{Quote|{{Quron|17|8}}|It may be that your Lord will have mercy on you, but if ye repeat (the crime) We shall repeat (the punishment), and We have appointed hell a dungeon for the disbelievers.}} | |||
And in yet another reference, an observer is directed to “look down” in order to witness a denizen of hell. | |||
{{Quote|{{Quron|37|54}}-{{Quron-faqat-link|37|55}}|(A voice) said: "Would ye like to look down?" | |||
He looked down and saw him in the midst of the Fire.}} | |||
And so, we have the Islamic Universe in completion. | |||
