  • What are the Paradise-worlds like?

    Are the Qur'anic depictions of Paradise accurate or just metaphorical? A literal reading of the Qur'an would mean that the Paradise-worlds are Gardens of Eden where sex is heavily engaged in.

    What is the Daheshist view of sex? When ok when not ok? In marriage only or no? What is the age of consent? Should we all become celebate like the Manichaens?

    Hi Darrick,

    I will answer one part of your quesion: In other worlds, things are not the same as they are "here." So, the concept of "Sex" in other worlds is totally different than on Earth. It is difficult enough to speak about the concept of "other worlds" or "other dimensions" (where our energy—each one of is made of pure energy—would have a totally different sense of consciousness than on Earth.)

    Imagine Prophet Mohammad having to discuss these matters in a time where modern physics as we know it did not exist.

    I believe he was speaking metaphorically.

    Best

      inform me please

      Dear Darrick,
      May i ask you, where did you read in Qura'n? "that the sex is heavily engaged in the paradise".
      By the way, where is no material , no sex.

      30لأَنَّهُمْ فِي الْقِيَامَةِ لاَ يُزَوِّجُونَ وَلاَ يَتَزَوَّجُونَ بَلْ يَكُونُونَ كَمَلاَئِكَةِ اللَّهِ فِي السَّمَاءِ.

        Sex in Paradise

        The Qur'an describes Paradise as Gardens that rivers flow wherein men and women will be served by houris ("white ones") and ghulams ("boy servants"). The Faithful will be wed to women with large black eyes (the houris presumably). I assume "wed" includes conjugal relations, but I admit the Qur'an does not specifically say "sex".
