The Mohammedan Paradise

The Koran has for its subject matter death, resurrection, judgment, paradise, and hell. The joys of paradise are
designed to satisfy fundamental desires in man. All who die for the cause of their religion go to paradise. This
Mohammedan paradise is made delightful by black-eyed maidens not made of common clay. They are free from all
blemishes; they are full of eternal virtue and beauty. They await the souls of believers in rosy bowers set in the hollow
of giant pearls. The soil of paradise is perfumed and sprinkled with gold and silver and flowers. The fruits of the trees
are of a taste unknown to mortals. Numerous rivers flow through paradise; some are of wine; others are of milk and
honey. The riverbeds and riverbanks are full of emeralds, diamonds and rubies. The meanest of believers will have
80,000 servants and 72 wives. At whatever age a Mohammedan dies, at his resurrection in paradise, he will be restored
to manly vigor and eternal health. It would take a journey of a thousand years for a true believer to travel through
paradise and see all the wives, servants, gardens, jewelry, robes, houses, camels, and other things that are exclusively
his.
