Paradise: Only Immunity From Sorrow

English book, p. 235

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

PARADISE ONLY IMMUNITY FROM SORROW No matter what you acquire or achieve in this world, there will always be an aspect of sorrow. It is only Paradise that delivers immunity from all these worldly deficiencies. Paradise is a place eternally free from sorrow, the ultimate destination for man. W hen the inhabitants of Paradise behold its bounties, they will exclaim: All Praise be to God who has taken away all grief from us. Surely, our Lord is most forgiving and most appreciative. (The Quran, 35:34) A unique feature of Paradise is that there will be no sorrow. If this present world is a sorrow-filled world, Paradise will be a sorrow free world. There will no physical or psychological sorrow in Paradise. According to the Quran, in this world man has been given all that he requires (14:34). But there is one thing that is an integral and necessary part of this world—and that is sorrow.
