Heaven.
4. Giria for attaining nearness to Allah. Such a person loves Allah although the materialistic life has created a distance between the
creature and the Creator! This Giria is the noblest of all other
types.
“O Abu Dharr! If one keeps Allah in view while performing any act,
and performs it to earn the pleasure of the Creator, even to the extent of
taking a morsel of food with the thought that the energy derived would
enable him to offer prayer to Him! It would be the greatest of the acts of
piety when a person does everything with the sole purpose of earning
the pleasure of Allah!”
Hazrat Ali (a.s) has said, “Blessed and worthy of a hundred praises are
those creatures of Allah who are not known to the people nor they strive
to gain popularity in the society. Only such persons are recognized by
Allah. He will give them Reward for their noble intent. These people are
the beacons of the path of righteousness. Their hearts are radiant with
the light of faith. They fully understand the futility and transience of the
world. They strive to attain the Heaven and cry with the fear of the Hell.
O Abu Dharr! Belief in the existence of the Heaven and the Hell is mandatory. Denying their existence is heresy and infidelity.”
One heretic asked some questions of Imam Jafar e Sadiq (a.s).
THE FIRST QUESTION: How is it possible that the fruit trees in the
Heaven would continuously bear fruit despite the inmates consuming
them copiously?
ANSWER: The Imam (a.s) said: It is like lighting thousands of lamps
from one lamp and the light of the first lamp doesn’t diminish.
THE SECOND QUESTION: It is believed that people will not defecate in the Heaven. Then what will happen to the offal?
ANSWER: The Imam (a.s) said, “The excreta will be discharged from
the bodies in the form of fragrant perspiration.”
Hearing these replies the infidel embraced Islam.
Someone asked Hazrat Bilal a question about the Heaven. Hazrat Bilal
said: I have heard the Prophet of Allah (a.s) say that the compound wall
of the Heaven is built of gold, silver and bricks of precious stones mixed
with musk, ambergris and saffron. The Heaven has several gateways.
The gate called Darwaza e Rehmat (the Gate of Blessings) is made of red
rubies. Darwaza e Sabr (the Gate of Forbearance) is made of yellow rubies.
The Darwaza e Shukr (the Gate of Thankfulness) is made of white rubies.
The biggest and the most imposing gate to the Heaven will be used only
325by the revered persons who spent their entire lives in prayer of Allah. At
this gate there are canals from where the men of piety (Momineen) will go
sightseeing in boats. Allah will provide opportunities to all the Momins
to qualify for entry into the Heaven.
Abu Salat Harvi asked Imam Reza (a.s), “O son of the Prophet (a.s)! Do
the Heaven and the Hell exist now?”
The Imam (a.s) replied, “Without any doubt!”
Abu Salat said, “People say that Allah will create the Heaven and the
Hell and that they don’t exist now!”
The Imam (a.s) replied, “He who says so is not one of us! The Prophet
(a.s), on the night of Meraj (the Night of the Holy Prophet’s Accession),
traveled through the Heaven and saw the Hell!” Then the Imam (a.s), referring to several verses of the Holy Book and the Traditions proved that
denying the existence of the Heaven and the Hell would be tantamount
to not believing in the Quran, the Prophet (a.s) and his Vicegerents. A
person who holds such disbelief is a kafir and infidel.
