Parable A parable is a story that teaches something. Allah set forth many parables for mankind but only those who understand them can attain wisdom. Paradise Paradise is a very happy place which Allah made for the believers. They will live there forever and enjoy Allah’s blessings. They will have there everything their hearts desire.
