They are pretty big on hell in Islam
Jahannam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
seems to be a lot more specific than hell in Christianity which does not have much of a scriptural basis.
Islam is not just the Quran, far from it, its is the Quran and Sunnah or ways of the prophet, without the Sunnah there would be no Islam as we know it today. The lineage of Sheiks goes all the way back the the Prophet(saw) apparently so anyway.
If it floats your boat then its fine, but to call it christianity is misleading as its not.
Both Islam and Christianity are more than just the books they are also the traditions that gave rise to the books.
maybe God is a sadist, or maybe heaven and hell are a allegory to something else ?
I'm not really that clear on the afterlife.
I think that there will be some pain when our false self is stripped away, but I dont think that pain we be eternal ?
Thanks Thomas
modern life seems so complicated so many distractions.
just to clarify
we cant get away from the divine even if we try, but we can forget !
