Question: Idea on heaven!?
if you think about it, if there is a heaven and people who did wrong things didn't go to heaven, well what's the point!? i mean 70 - 80 years on earth compared to forever in heaven is unthinkably short!. so just this tiny fraction (not that it would fit at all into the infinity years in heaven) wouldn't really make a difference to if you get in heaven or not!. because everyone should go to heaven when they die and have peace there!.
the past shouldn't matter!. and god's supposed to be forgiving!.
so, the fact that god would let people go to hell!.!.!. well, doesn't sound very forgiving to me!.
anyway, what do you think about it!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Okay I think all this talk about someone loving God to go to heaven is bogus!. I always thought that as long as you were an overall even far from perfect person who didnt believe in god even at that would still go to heaven!.
Those who kill other people and do the unthinkable while feeling no Regret will go to Hell!.
But that was when I was younger I believed in that idea!. Today I believe WE right now are spirits inside bodies!. and when the time comes for us to pass on!.!. Our spirit will simply flow into another body and life will go on!.!.!.!. Human body's may die but the spirit that makes us who we are never dies!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
people who go to hell go there not because God does not love them but because they turned away from God!. anyone who loves God and asks for forgiveness for the times that they turn away from God and do things they know they should not!. God does not let people go to hell they choose it!. for reasons only they know!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think that maybe we all just go where we believe!.
Reincarnation, nirvana, heaven, hell, whatever!.

"And call not, besides Allah, on another god!. There is no god but He!. Everything (that exists) will perish except His own Face!. To Him belongs the Command, and to Him will ye (all) be brought back!. " [Qur'an 28:88]
All will go back to God eventually!. Hell is not eternal as it is of the created realm and because only God (Allah subhana wa ta'ala) is eternal:
the divine breath we have been blessed with (Ruh) will go back to the source (Allah subhana wa ta'ala) "!.!.!.!.!.!.!.Everything (that exists) will perish except His own Face!.!.!.!.!.!.!." [above verse, Quran: 28:88!.!.!.!.Sadaqa allah ul atheem]!.
"During prayer I am accustomed to turn to God like this:
that's the meaning of the words of the Tradition,
"the delight I feel in the ritual prayer!."
The window of my soul opens,
and from the purity of the Unseen World,
the Book of God comes to me straight!.
The Book, the rain of Divine Grace, and the Light
are falling through my window into my house
from my real and original source!.
The house without a window is Hell:
to make a window, O servant of God
is the foundation of the true Religion!.
Don't thrust your axe upon every thicket:
come, use your axe to cut open a window!."
---- Jewels of Remembrance (Jalaluddin Muhammad Balkhi (RUMI)
Hell is merely distance from God!. The way to God is through the heart!. The heart needs much polishing!.
"Neither doth My earth nor My heaven contain Me (God), but the heart of My faithful servant containeth Me!." (Islamic Hadith)
"Everyone sees the Unseen in proportion to the clarity of his heart, and that depends upon how much he has polished it!. Whoever has polished it more sees more--more Unseen forms become manifest to him!." --- Jalaluddin Muhammad Balkhi (RUMI)Www@QuestionHome@Com
