As
we have seen throughout this book, Allah describes the beauties
in Paradise that will be presented to those Muslims who
comply with the Qur'an's morality while living in this world.
Beautiful mansions with rivers flowing under them, constantly
flowing springs, villas, foods and drinks, and jewels will
be granted to them in return for their moral excellence.
Paradise is the eternal life that Muslims always long to
attain:
"Enter Paradise, you and your wives, delighting in your
joy." Platters and cups of gold will be passed around
among them, and they will have there all that their hearts
desire and in which their eyes find delight. You will
remain in it timelessly, forever. That is Paradise you
will inherit for what you did. There will be many fruits
in it for you to eat. (Surat az-Zukhruf: 70-73)
The Golden Age is such a beautiful life granted
to Muslims in this world. This period is, as our Prophet
(saas) said, an image of Paradise. It is a blessing from
Allah. With its abundance, as well as its peaceful and comfortable
environment, it is a period that every servant of faith
who devotes his or her life to Allah would like to attain,
and a great reward.
For all Muslims, it is no doubt a great honor
to be given the good news of this period.
