Allah calls to the Abode of
Peace and guides whom He wills to a straight path. Those who do
good will have the best and more! Neither dust nor debasement will darken
their faces.
They are the Companions of Paradise, remaining in it timelessly, forever.
(Surah Yunus: 25-26)

Conclusion
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.
