Understanding The Concept Of Hell In Islam

Hell is a real place full of horror is misery. The Qurʾān provides a very detailed and graphic description of hell as it does for paradise. These descriptions are meant to motivate humans to strive to enter paradise and be saved from hell. Death is the ultimate reality and after that we have only one of two destinations, hell or heaven. The only way to be saved from hell is to follow the religion of Islam, the true and authentic teachings of God.

Every soul will taste death and you will be paid in full only on the Day of Resurrection. Whoever is kept away from the Fire and admitted to the Paradise will have indeed triumphed. And the life of this world is only an illusory pleasure. (Qurʾān 3:185).
