Love of Allah

tiful place where true love, friendship, and closeness are lived with
great exuberance. In the Qur'an, Allah informs us of how believers
will live in Paradise: It will be a life of constant joy, friendship, love,
peaceful discussions, kind words, and overall peace. Its inhabitants
will encounter none of the obstacles to love and friendship that they

knew on Earth. For example, it is revealed in one verse in the Qur'an
that all malice and hatred will be removed from the hearts of those
who enter Paradise (Surat al-A'raf, 43). In other words, whatever
prohibits love and friendship (e.g., jealousy, enmity, rivalry, anger,
getting cross, or being offended) will not be found in Paradise.
One of the most important characteristics of the Muslims living
in Paradise will be their ability to love, just as they did on Earth, all

of the prophets, those pious believers who strove in the path of
Allah, and all of the Muslims who lived in the past.
