A to Z Challenge; H is for Heaven
I have been thinking about heaven a lot lately since I have had two deaths of people close to me in the past two months. I am Muslim and the Qur’an tells us that if we are good people who are good to the poor, say our prayers, avoid idol worship, we will go to heaven. In the Qur’an, heaven is described as a beautiful place. A Garden of Bliss with rivers flowing beneath it. The people of heaven will wear silk robes and recline on couches and cushions of brocade. They will be served delicious drinks and food by young servants and be neither hot nor cold. Fruit trees will be within their reach. They will be happy forever. It sounds like a pretty nice place and I’m glad that my uncle and friend are there now after their illnesses. It makes me want to be a good person and do what I should so that one day I’ll be in the Garden of Bliss. It is much better than the alternative.
Great closing, young lady.
