Rewards Promised to Suicide Bombers in Heaven

The Hamas student association at Al- Najah university in Nablus (which won a large majority in the student elections) continues to preach and encourage students and young Palestinians to carry out suicide attacks against Israeli citizens. On its official Website, the student association praises the suicide bombers, and takes special pride in those who were students at Al- Najah university and were active in the association. The university of Al- Najah has produced more suicide bombers than any other Palestinian university. So far, eight suicide bombers have emerged from Al- Najah university, the last one being Muhammad Cazid Al- Bustami who blew himself up at the petrol station in Ariel on October 27, 2002.

The student associations website praises the suicide bomber Muhammad Al- Bustami, calling him a "hero" and noting that he is one "of the leaders who spreads the light with their blood and chart with their lives the annals of glory". Enclosed is a photograph of the suicide bomber and the praise (and a reference to the history of the "hero"), as it appears on the Palestinian student's association Website.

In a chapter called "the culture of the suicide bomber" on the student association website, appear the stories of two youngsters, a man (a student at Al - Najah University) and a woman who chose to carry out suicide attacks against Israeli citizens. These stories depicting the viewpoint of the suicide bombers, intend to encourage students and youngsters to follow the path of the Hamas suicide bombers. Enclosed is a translation of select parts of these stories:

"Introduction.

The pen is silent, powerless and confused when facing the magnificence and power of he who commits suicide for Allah, the pen is powerless faced with your ability and strength, the pen trembles faced with your courage and toughness, the pen is silent to the sound of your voice which blends with the music of the belief and struggle, the pen bows its head in submission faced with your sublimeness. Oh, he who commits suicide for Allah, we do not know if to grieve for your departure… or to rejoice because you have obtained the honor of dying following the path of Allah, and the Lord knows (the reward of the suicide bomber) from the determined mother who receives her son who has committed suicide, weltering in his holy blood, at times with blessings and words of praise and at times with howls and cries. A thousand blessings and a thousand blessings of mercy for your pure spirit hovering in the skies of Palestine, which rose to the high skies… your name will be engraved in the heart and in the memory, and we swear to continue the path of Jihad (holy war) on which you marched."

"The first chapter

The story of a suicide bomber for Allah.

The time has come, the moment when he received the order from the Al- Qassam leadership (the Iz- Adin Al- Qassam Brigades- the terrorist wing of the Hamas), an order to prepare for an outstanding journey. Two days later, it is 7:30 AM. He goes to his bed, puts his hand under his pillow, and takes out his will, written by him three years earlier, when he joined the Brigades (Iz Adin Al- Qassam). The proud young man sat in the library and studied for his final exam, after which he would graduate from university. But he (after the suicide attack) began a journey in the world of the angels while praising and worshipping (Allah). After morning prayers and reading in the Koran in the mosque, he went to the university to take the exam he returned to the mosque to complete the worship of the Lord (i.e. prayers) and set off for home. He sat with his family, spoke with them and tried to bring joy to their lives, because it was the last night before his wedding (according to Islam, the suicide bomber weds at the moment of his death, 72 beautiful virgins, as part of his reward by Allah). He went to his room glancing at his family through the window, perhaps for the last time. (Next morning) he washed his body to purify himself, dressed in his best clothes, put on perfume, because in a few hours he is to stand before the king of kings (Allah). He kissed the hand of his mother as usual, telling her that he is going to prepare the holiday gift and will not be late. He prayed the morning prayer in the mosque... and put on the suicide belt (the explosive belt) and went with Allah's eyes following him, and the angels guarding him and atoning for his sins and in the middle of the city (inside Israel) he set the (Israeli) bus as his target (for his suicide bombing). While standing on the steps (of the bus) he met prophet Muhammad (and other prophets and other righteous persons) and when he stood in the middle of the bus, one of the beautiful women of paradise looked down on him, opened her arms and called him to come to her. He cried Allah is the greatest of all gods (Allah Akbar) and the place filled with black blood. Our dear friend was able to fulfill his vow to Allah. His mother released 25 howls from her mouth- the number of unclean Jews killed The university lecturer announced that he (the student suicide bomber) attained the most distinguished diploma (Shuhada has a double meaning, both university diploma and also self sacrifice for Allah). The Brigades (Iz Adin Al- Qassam) announced that the students of the Shahid (the "martyr", who committed suicide for Allah) will be holding another wedding shortly, and the celebrations will continue incessantly until triumph, with Allah's help.

"The third chapter

The female suicide bomber completes her journey.
Oh shahid (martyr), relax, relax, we will continue the struggle but how? This is the ever-present question. Our brothers and sisters in the suicide university (the name given to Al- Najah university) participate in an impressive procession, while accompanying a new bridegroom to heaven (i.e. A funeral of a suicide bomber) so he can meet there with prophet Muhammad and his martyred colleagues. Is not the Jihad (holy war) a binding command for every Muslim? What will I say to my Lord tomorrow? I placed my trust in the death for Allah as my most noble aspiration. At night she told her fiancé, and after a long argument, the desire to die for Allah triumphed, to follow those who sacrificed themselves for Allah. (After her fiance was killed) she contacted the leadership of Al- Qassam Brigades and requested what every Muslim dream of (i.e. carry out a suicide bombing) and they immediately prepared and booby-trapped (with explosives) the vehicle which our heroin drove. After the Al- Qassam Brigades set the target, she was dispatched (to carry out the suicide attack). Where the bride wed her groom and a voice from heaven stated: the female suicide bombers are worthy to wed in heaven with the male suicide bombers.

What does the Hamas movement promise the suicide bombers and faithful Muslims in heaven?

The Iz Adin Al- Qassam website which contributes to the Hamas student association website of Al- Najah university, referred the surfers to a site describing the rewards expected in heaven by those committing suicide for Allah. Following is a de????ion of heaven appearing on the site to which the surfers were referred by the Hamas site

The names of heaven:

The names of heaven express the essence of heaven according to Islam:

Al Janah- a garden containing trees.

Dar al- Islam- a place of perfection without a blemish or defect.

Dar al- Huld- all residents of heaven live there for eternity.

Dar al- Maqama- the place of honor.

Janah al- Mawa- the place all Muslims aspire to reach.

Janat Eden- a place that has orange groves and fruit orchids. Janat Eden has a view to all other gardens. This is the abode of the Lord. There is nothing like it. The gates to heaven have two openings from east and west; one made of emeralds and the other from beryls.

Dar al- Haywan- place of eternal life.

Al - Pirdus- grove with many trees.

Janah al- Nayim- de????ion of all the pleasures, the inhabitants of heaven enjoy, and they are: the various foods, the beverages, clothes, scenery and space.

Makad Sidek- the believer receives a good place in heaven according to his deeds.

The Gates of Heaven

There are eleven gates to heaven through which the believers enter:

Bab al- Siyam- through which the Muslims who fast enter.

Bab al- Sala'a- through which the Muslims who pray enter.

Bab al- Sadaka- through which the Muslims who give alms enter.

Bab al- Rahma- the god of the born again Muslims and of mercy. This gate never shuts, but if the sun were to shine from the west.

Bab al- Cazimin Ghiz- through which enter the Muslims who control their anger and overcome their drives.

Bab al- Aiyman- the gate of great belief, through which enter those who gave never sinned, such as children.

Bab al- Hajj- through which the Muslims who made the pilgrimage to the Hajj enter.

Bab al- Umra- through which the Muslims who made the small Hajj enter.

Bab al- Sila- the gate of mercy.

The springs of Heaven

There are many water springs in heaven differing in taste. The most prominent being:

Ein al- Kafour- that tastes like the Camphor tree.

Ein al- Tanism- that tastes like nectar and non intoxicating wine.

Ein Salsabil- tastes like ginger.

The rivers of heaven

There are various rivers in heaven, side by side, among them a river of water, of milk, honey and wine. From these flow all the other rivers of heaven. There are two invisible rivers and two visible ones. The names of the rivers: Sihan, Jihan, Alfurat and Alnil. The Al- Cawthar river is the one given to the prophet Muhammad by Allah. The banks of this river are made of pearls. One of the traditions claims that those who believe in Allah and his prophet, pray and fast during the month of Ramadan, are entitled to enter heaven. There are 100 steps that Allah prepared for Islamic warriors, suspended between heaven and earth. If you seek the abode of Allah, he is in the center of heaven, in the highest spot in heaven, above him the chair of glory, from which flow the rivers of heaven.

The Trees and Fruit in Heaven

There are more trees in heaven than mentioned in the Koran. These trees yield more fruit, finer and tastier than on earth.

The types of trees in heaven:

Jujube - its fruits are larger than on earth. Its leaves are as large as elephants' ears.

Acacia - on earth it provides only shade. In heaven it bears fruit with 70 tasters and colors. A huge tree that provides eternal shade. Tradition claims that a horseman will have to ride 100 years to pass the tree.

A tree named "Tobby", from which the garments of the inhabitants of heaven are made.

Apples.

Dates.

Grapes.

Basil.

Flowers.

All the trunks and branches of the trees in heaven are made of gold.

The Dwelling in Heaven

Allah builds good and pleasant dwellings in heaven. The inhabitants receive rooms, under which flow rivers. There are also tents in heaven [Hayam] each one made of a pearl 60 mile high, and some claim also 60 mile wide. Each mile contains a special corner for family members of the believer, hidden from others. One of the traditions tells that any Muslim who builds a mosque in this world, is rewarded by Allah in heaven with a similar place. Anyone who prays 12 cycles of prayers, is built a house in heaven by Allah.

Food and Beverages in Heaven

Allah provides the inhabitants of heaven with rivers of water, milk, honey and wine. The wine is free of any defects and negative attributes wine has on earth, such as: affect on discretion, headaches, deseases, bad taste or color. After the inhabitants of heaven drink this wine they smell of perfume. Believers entering heaven, immediately eat whale liver. They also eat a certain type of bull, and drink water from the Salsabil river. There are no impurities in the food of heaven. The food and drink become in the "bodies" of the inhabitants of heaven, drops of perfume, exuding from their bodies. Part of it also issues from their "bodies" as hiccups which are also perfume scented. Thus they do not need to excrete waste materials from their bodies. They eat and drink not for nourishment but for the sense of pleasure. The utensils they use are made of gold and silver.

Animals in heaven

There are birds and animals in heaven known by name and character only to Allah.

Light and Darkness in Heaven

There is eternal light in heaven. Darkness is "created" only when doors are shut or the head is covered with a veil.

The Smell of Heaven

A pleasant smell of perfume.

De????ion of Inhabitants of heaven

The believers enter heaven in the image of the first human being Allah created- healthy, complete, as tall as palm trees and in their prime at the age of 33.

Allah builds each person in this world a house in hell and a house in heaven. The believing Muslim takes from the infidel and from those who worship other gods besides Allah, their house in heaven and the infidel receives the house of the Muslim in hell.

The women of heaven- Hur al - Ayan

Hur al- Ayan- those with the beautiful eyes. The white of their eyes shine and their pupils are jet black. Their breasts are prominent and their teeth compatible. They are young and beautiful as pearls, corals and gems and the shade of their skin is like sunlight. The women of heaven are pure. They have no monthly period or bleeding after birth and no other secretions. The women of heaven sing beautifully in anticipation of good husbands. The "Shahid" (martyr) for Allah, receives immediate atonement of all his sins, with the first drop of his blood being shed. He is exempt from the suffering of the grave, a crown at honor is placed on his head and he weds 72 virgins, whose abode is in heaven (Hur al- Ayan) and is entitled to have 70 family members enter heaven- The "Shahid" receives the potency of 70 men.

Women Arriving in Heaven

The wife of a believer in this world, will be his wife also in heaven, if she were a believing woman. They are entitled to the pleasures of heaven with their husbands. The women will be wed to her last husband if she were married to several men. One tradition says that each man will have one woman only, the righteous will have two, and the "shahid" will have 72, because he enters heaven unconditionally.

The Scorn of Inhabitants of Heaven toward those Going to Hell

The believers, after entering heaven, heap scorn and curses upon the infidels going to hell.

The First to Enter Heaven

The prophet Muhammad and the Caliph Abu Bakr. These enter ahead of believers - the "Shahid" [martyr], he who suppresses his drives and the believer in Allah. The sons and daughters of believers who have not reached adulthood reach heaven directly, due to Allah's mercy.

The Majority in Heaven and Hell - Men or Women ?

It is largely debated. Some believe that women are the majority in hell. Common belief has it that women are the majority in hell (presumably because of their sins) and in heaven (a man has several wives).

Wishes in Heaven

Allah fulfills the wishes of the inhabitants of heaven to sprout trees and have children. The tree grows immediately after being sown and yields fruit. The child is formed in one hour, including the stages of pregnancy and birth.

The Essence of Heaven

Eternal delight. There are no commandmants of exams, as in this world.

Servants in Heaven

Those inhibiting heaven have servants created specially by Allah, who help them attain eternal delight. These servants possess extreme beauty. One tradition speaks of 100 short servants presenting inhabitants of heaven with food and water.

Social Life in Heaven

The inhabitants of heaven visit each other, meet and discuss events on earth, and bless their fortune for being in heaven.
