Addressing Non-Muslim Misconceptions about Paradise
“Moulana, non-Muslims ridicule Paradise, saying that Muslims' goal to qualify for Paradise is so that they can get food and fulfill all their pleasures. They are not able to visualize Paradise beyond pleasure. How can we address such questions for both Muslims and non-Muslims, so they take Paradise in the greater sense rather than pleasure fulfillment?”Asked by Anwar, Lucknow
yeh to bohat hi qeemti hai. maulana, agla sawal bheja hai anwar sahib ne lucknow se. unhon ne likha hai: "maulana, non-Muslims ridicule paradise, saying that Muslims' target to qualify for paradise is so they can get houris and fulfill all their pleasures. they are not able to visualize parah raz beyond pleasure. how can we address such questions for both muslims and non muslims? so they take parah raz in the greater sense rather than pleasure fulfillment?" dekhiye, yeh insan ki personality ko understand karna hai. man is a pleasure seeking animal. all the study is so, sara jo study ki gayi hai insan ke bare mein, us se yahi pata chalta hai ke man is a pleasure, pleasure seeking animal.
yeh to deny karna hai insan ki personality ko. jo log aisi baatein karte hain, woh woh poetry karte hain, woh reality ko na jante hain, na reality ko express karte hain. maulana, agla sawal chennai se maulana iqbal umri ne likha hai aur un ka sawal hai: "insan ki takhleeq ka maqsad kya hai?" takleef, takhleeq, takhleeq, takhleeq, takhleeq
