He says in the Qur'an He is free of all needs worthy of all praise. So God doesn't give us this information and tell us about paradise and hellfire for Himself. It's for us as His creatures. It's nothing in Paradise that will be a pleasure to Allah nor anything in Hell that can hurt Him. In paradise The food and drinks, and beauty and gold and jewels and sexual companions, mansions, perfect weather, no disease, no sickness or ill feelings towards one another. Sweet fragrances, being waited on, etc. All of these things and so many more are things that God has created us humans to love. So He promises us by living the right life and worshipping Him alone, seeking His forgiveness when we sin in this temporary life in the Hereafter we shall have whatever we desire for all eternity. And the rewards will be so much greater than anything we can imagine. But He gives us a comparison of things that we can relate to in this life. Just the same with hellfire. Everybody knows how fire burns and what scalding water is. So He explains in detail certain punishment so we have an idea of what to compare it to in this life even though it will be worse than we could imagine so we know what we want to stay away from(January 18, 2016 at 8:36 am)Sheed1980 Wrote: Do me a favor.

I have a question. 7 billion humans and somehow lucky us you managed to find the correct god and the correct ancient book. That's fantastic.
But here's the rub, seems a bit of a problem that your alleged "all powerful" being cant or wont get us all on the same page. Don't feel bad, Christians and Jews have the same problem. I still have yet to see any of the three give me a good answer.
But here goes. Why would an all powerful being want or need human's help? If he can "poof" all this into existence, seems absurd he would need fallible humans to act as his public relations department? Are you telling me he cant do the work himself without your help?
