An Eternal State



{مَنْ عَمِلَ صَالِحًا مِّن ذَكَرٍ أَوْ أُنثَىٰ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ فَلَنُحْيِيَنَّهُ حَيَاةً طَيِّبَةً ۖ وَلَنَجْزِيَنَّهُمْ أَجْرَهُم بِأَحْسَنِ مَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ}

[النحل : 97]


“Whoever does righteousness, whether male or female, while he is a believer - We will surely cause him to live a good life, and We will surely give them their reward [in the Hereafter] according to the best of what they used to do.” - [Sūrah an-Nahl: 97]


Imām Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله:


“This good life (mentioned in the Āyah), will eventuate in the three different abodes: this worldly life, the Barzakh [from the point of death till resurrection] and the eternal abode.

Similarly, the wretched life will be in the three abodes. So, the pious will dwell in (a life of) bliss; here (in this world) and over there (in the Ākhirah), and the wicked will be in Hell; here (in this world) and over there (in the Ākhirah).”


- Madārij as-Sālikīn: 3/243
