Jannah

An 1808 [[Kashmir In Islam, Jannah (, pl. ''jannāt'', lit. "paradise, garden") is the final abode of the righteous. According to one count, the word appears 147 times in the Qur'an. Belief in the afterlife is one of the six articles of faith in Sunni and Twelver Shi'ism and is a place in which "believers" (''Mumin'') will enjoy pleasure, while the unbelievers (''Kafir'') will suffer in ''Jahannam''. Both ''Jannah'' and ''Jahannam'' are believed to have several levels. In the case of Jannah, the higher levels are more desirable, and in the case of Jahannam, the lower levels have a higher level of punishments. — in ''Jannah'' the higher the prestige and pleasure, in ''Jahannam'' the severity of the suffering. The afterlife experiences are described as physical, psychic and spiritual.

Jannah is described with physical pleasures such as gardens, beautiful houris, wine that has no aftereffects, and "divine pleasure". Their reward of pleasure will vary according to the righteousness of the person. The characteristics of ''Jannah'' often have direct parallels with those of ''Jahannam''. The pleasure and delights of ''Jannah'' described in the Qu'ran, are matched by the excruciating pain and horror of ''Jahannam''.

Jannah is also referred to as the abode of Adam and Eve before their expulsion. Most Muslims hold that ''Jannah'' and ''Jahannam'' co-exist with the temporal world, rather than being created after Judgement Day. Humans may not pass the boundaries to the afterlife, but it may interact with the temporal world of humans. Provided by Wikipedia
