Salvation from Hellfire
|
|
God has said in the Quran: |
Those who have disbelieved
and died in disbelief, the earth full of gold would not be accepted from any of
them if one offered it as a ransom. They will have a painful punishment, and
they will have no helpers.
(Quran, 3:91)
So, this life is our only chance to win
Paradise and to escape from Hellfire, because if someone dies in disbelief, he
will not have another chance to come back to this world to believe. As God has
said in the Quran about what is going to happen for the unbelievers on the Day
of Judgment:
If you could but see when
they are set before the Fire (Hell) and say, “Would that we might return (to the
world)! Then we would not reject the verses of our Lord, but we would be of the
believers!” (Quran,
6:27)
But no one will have this second
opportunity.
The Prophet Muhammad
said: {The happiest man in the world of those doomed to the Fire (Hell) on
the Day of Judgment will be dipped in the Fire once. Then he will be asked,
“Son of Adam, did you ever see any good? Did you ever experience any
blessing?” So he will say, “No, by God, O Lord!”}1
