What's your opinion on Islam?

C1: Status and Morality [1] My first contention focuseson the severity of sin based on the status of the being it is being directed towards. This falls in line with general moral intuitions. It would be considered much 更多 immoral to harm 或者 kill a highly respected member of society rather than the common man. The argument doesn't require societal structures at all. Surely, the immorality felt 由 killing an ant 或者 a fly is much different than that of another human since the status of the human is higher than that of the ant 或者 fly. Now when we consider Allah, a being of infinite greatness and supremacy the level of immorality rises to infinity. Many times when committing sins, Muslims are encouraged to not think of the weight of the sin but the greatness of the one we are transgressing “ Do not look at the smallness of the sin, rather look at the greatness of the One Whom 你 have disobeyed. ” [2] Since the 更多 serious a crime is the 更多 serious its punishment should be, all sin against Allah merits an infinite punishment. An important consideration with this idea of the level of immorality increasing with higher status is the intentionality of the sin. For example, hitting someone with your car 由 accident rather than on purpose is much less immoral 或者 even amoral rather than the latter. In Islam, only intentional sin will be counted as was agreed upon in the framework in R1. An intentional sin would be someone who has heard the message of Islam, its guidelines, and freely transgresses them. People who have never heard themessage of 伊斯兰教 will not be condemned to eternal damnation for their unintentional sins. C2: Consequences of Sin While my first contention argues that all sin (given people who have heard Islam) merits an infinite punishment based on status, this contention shows that some sins based on their consequences merit an eternal punishment. Many people who reject 或者 who are critical of the teaching of the eternal nature of hell often say that the amount of sins are finite and thus doesn't warrant an eternity in hell.However, what they seem to focus on is the time aspect of the sin rather than their consequences. While an act of sin maybe temporal, the effects of some sins have eternal consequences. For example, consider heinous sins in 伊斯兰教 such as rape 或者 murder. The consequences on the mind/soul of those affected 由 murder and rape are permanent for all those who have been involved. Since these crimes are arguably are primarily on the mind, their consequences are everlasting. Considering the agreed upon framework of this opinion, the soul continues to exist after death and as such the effects continue to last until Allah relieves them. Irrespective of whether the damage is repaired, the punishment should be eternal. An analogy to illustrate, suppose one who was stabbed 由 another person was hospitalized and brought back to good health in a reasonable span of time. Simply because the pain and damage caused has been repaired, it doesn't mean that the one who wronged doesn't pay the punishment anymore. In fact, they still would pay the same penalty regardless of whether the victim was healed 或者 not. Similarly, because the one whom sin with eternal consequences has been inflicted upon is relieved itdoesn't mean the one who has committed the sin is also relieved.

C3: Free Will This contention shows that Hell is ultimately a choice made 由 the individual and not be blamed upon Allah. On 伊斯兰教 this entire life is a test, it is a preparation for the 下一个 life to come. Those who are righteous and freely follow the guidelines of 伊斯兰教 (after hearing the message) whilst constantly repenting for their inevitable wrong doings will attain paradise and those who choose to not (after hearing the message) will reap the results of their evil deeds, eternal damnation. There is an important distinction that needs to be made when I say that one chooses to go to hell. Many times, a person would object that it is inconceivable that one would choose to go into a burning 火, 消防 eternally. However they are forgetting that hellfire is a choice not in the direct sense but in an indirect one, it is a consequence of rejecting the teachings and moral guidelines of Islam. When one chooses to freely reject Islam, they are simultaneously choosing hell. This is what is meant, and it is in this way that hell 火, 消防 is a choice made 由 the individual. - - - - - - - - - - - - In conclusion, an eternal hell is justified because of the infinite severity of intentional sin due to the infinite status of Allah. Some sins are indeed infinitely severe due to their everlasting consequences on the soul of an individual and finally, hell 火, 消防 is essentially an indirect choice made 由 an individual when they freely choose to reject the message of Islam. All these reasons strongly support the doctrine of an eternal hell. The resolution is affirmed.
