1.. In the Quran, Allah, may He be exalted, has mentioned different types of people in several places, and has described in detail the bliss of those who go ahead of others. Those places include what is mentioned in Surat ar-Rahman, Surat al-Waqi`ah and other surahs of the Holy Quran. The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) told us about the variations in the level and status of the people of Paradise . 2.. We have not come across any details of what Allah has prepared for the people of al-Firdaws of eternal bliss therein, other than what we already know, which is that it is the highest level of the people of Paradise, and above it is the Throne of the Most Gracious, may He be glorified and exalted.

Everything that is mentioned of the delights of Paradise is for both men and women equally. Women in Paradise will restrain their glances, looking only at their husbands, and they will not want to look at anyone else; they will not see anyone in Paradise more handsome than their husbands.

Some of the scholars are of the view that if a person wishes to have a child in Paradise, Allah will fulfil that wish for him. Some other scholars said that in Paradise there will be intercourse but there will be no children.

1- Those who are blessed (destined for Paradise) and the people of faith, Allah has decreed that they will not exit from Paradise. 2- Muslims, who mixed good deeds with bad deeds, Allah will admit them to Hell for their sins for a while, then He will bring them out of the Fire and will decree that they will abide for eternity in Paradise after that. 3- If the disbeliever does something that is deserving of reward, he will be rewarded for it in this world, not in the Hereafter.

The Sirat is a bridge that will be set up over Hell, over which people will pass according to their deeds. Some will pass as fast as the blink of an eye, or as fast as lightning, or as fast as the wind, or as fast as swift horses. Some will cross running, some walking, some crawling, and some will be snatched and thrown into the Fire, each according to his deeds.

Sequence of events on the Day of Resurrection: 1- When the people are resurrected and rise from their graves, they will go to the land of gathering. 2- When they have stood for a long time, Allah will first bring forth for His Prophet his cistern to which people will come. 3- Then the people will stand for a long time, then will come the great intercession – the intercession of the Prophet who will ask Allah to hasten the reckoning for all people. 4- After that will come the examination of deeds. 5- Then after the examination will come the reckoning. 6- After the first reckoning, the records of deeds will fly [to the people]. 7- Then after the reading of the records, there will be a further reckoning to leave no room for excuses and establish proof by reading what is in the records. 8- Then after that the balance will be set up, and the things that we have mentioned will be weighed. 9- Then after the balance, people may be divided into groups and categories, with people of similar calibre being grouped together. 10- Then after that, Allah will cause darkness to prevail just before people reach Hell – we seek refuge with Allah. 11- Then the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) will come first, and will be standing on the Sirat. 12- The first to enter Paradise, after the Prophet will be the poor among the Muhajirun and the poor among the Ansar, then the poor among the Ummah.

The reckoning on the Day of Resurrection will be of two types: 1- the presentation of deeds which will be only for the believer; 2- the reckoning in which they will be thoroughly examined. This is the reckoning of Allah for the disbelievers and whomever He will of the sinners among those who affirmed His Oneness.
