THE GREATEST JOY

Eternal Happiness

“God will say to the people of Paradise, ‘O people of Paradise!’ They will say, ‘Labbayk, O our Lord, , and all the good is in Your Hands!’ God will say, ‘Are you satisfied?’ They will say, ‘Why shouldn’t we be satisfied, O our Lord, as You have given us what You have not given to any of Your created beings?’ God will say, ‘Shall I not give you something better than that?’ They will say, ‘O our Lord! What else could be better than this?’ He will say, ‘I bestow My Pleasure on you and will never be angry with you ever after.’ – Prophet of Islam (Sahih Bukhari)

PARADISE is, undoubtedly, the collection of all blessings. It is the place where every desire and aspiration of human beings will be completely fulfilled. Those who are blessed with entry into Paradise will find that they have obtained all their joys in their true sense. But still, they will be faced with an apprehension that since they have received admission into Paradise as a gift from God and they are not its creators, if God so wills, He can take away this blessing from them.

When God Himself declares that He is eternally pleased with those who have been admitted into Paradise, it would mean that Paradise has become their eternal home and that it will never be taken away from them.

The above-cited Hadith is the answer to this doubt. When God Himself declares that He is eternally pleased with those who have been admitted into Paradise, it would mean that Paradise has now become their eternal home and that it will never be taken away from them.

Undoubtedly, this will be the greatest joy that the inhabitants of Paradise will experience.
