Eden

What eden does look like is beyond human comprehension as it is a different type of world from this world (dunyaa) in which we are living now. Nevertheless, the edenic state of an individual is something we can get a grasp of from quraan.

It is mentioned in quraan that the eden dwellers have a positive mental state (happiness, love, tranquility etc). Hence, an individual should develop his/her mentality to reach this state by purifying the heart during this lifetime.

Spirituality (imaan), good deeds (amal saalih) and knowledge (ilm) are crucial for purifying the heart as have been demonstrated by the prophets, ahl-albayt and the people of truth. With a purified heart, an individual is able to have a 'higher consciousness'. A consciousness in which Allah's greatness and love are embraced.

All in all, an edenic state is a state where ego is being dissolved into ONENESS.
