Pure delight without pain and suffering
While people in this world experience some delight, they also face much
toil and suffering. If one was to
scrutinize the life which they live, they will
find that the amount of hardship they face is much more than the
ease and
comfort. As for the life of the Hereafter, there will be no hardship nor
suffering in it, and people will live therein in pure joy and delight. All the
causes of sorrow, pain and suffering which people experience in this life will
be absent in the Hereafter. Let’s take a look at some of these causes.
Wealth
When one thinks of success in this life, they usually conjure the image
of big houses, fine jewelry and clothing, and expensive cars; financial
stability is seen to be the key to a happy life. To most people, success is
inseparably related to wealth, even though this is the furthest from the truth.
How many times have we seen the wealthiest of people living such miserable
lives, that it sometimes even leads them to commit suicide! Wealth is something
which humans in their very nature desire at any cost, and this desire has been
created for a great and wise purpose. When this desire is not satiated, it
causes some extent of grief in a person. For this reason, God has promised the
inhabitants of Paradise that they will have all that they imagined as far as
wealth and belongings are concerned, both for those who were extremely poor,
experiencing even hunger and thirst, to those well-to-do but who desired even
more. God gives us a glimpse of this when he says:
“... there will be there all that the souls could desire, all that the
eyes could delight in …” (Quran 43:71)
“Eat and drink at ease for that which you have sent forth (good deeds)
in days past!” (Quran 69:24)
“… They will be adorned therein with bracelets of gold, and they will
wear green garments of fine silk and heavy brocade. They will recline therein
on raised thrones. How good [is] the recompense! How beautiful a couch [is there]
to recline on!” (Quran 18:31)
