Heaven and hell according to the holy Quran

SHAFAQNA – The topic of heaven and hell has been discussed in various Ayahs (verses) of the holy Quran and a few of these Ayahs are explained below.

Ayah 36 of Surah Al-Naze’at: “And hell is revealed for the one who sees.”

Ayahs 90 and 91 of Surah Sho’ara: “Heaven gets close to the righteous ones, and hell is revealed to the sinners.”

Ayah 49 of Surah Tawbah: “And indeed hell surrounds the unbelievers.” In this holy verse, it says hell surrounds and does not say it will surround in the future [1]. This Ayah and the ones mentioned above all indicate that heaven and hell have been created by Allah (SWT) and are in existence now.
