In the book, The Purpose of Creation: The Spiritual Journey Towards Eternal Paradise, Maulana Wahiduddin Khan explains that God is the source of all virtues. Living a God-oriented life is the way to Paradise, another name for which is living eternally in the neighbourhood of God (66:11). In the world before death man lives in the neighbourhood of God at a psychological level. After death his living in the world of God—Paradise, will be a reality. Those who attain such a deep realization of God, and purify their personalities, by re-engineering their minds through positive thinking, will undoubtedly be rewarded with eternal Paradise by God Almighty.
