331 God will have developed their seven senses into a sound condition will enjoy the blessings of heaven, but for those who will have corrupted their senses, these very blessings will turn into punishment. Virtuous people will feel only so much heat as will ensure their comfort, but the wicked will feel the heat of a burning fire which will scorch them with its flames. A virtuous man will enjoy spiritual blessings resembling cool water, but when the water is given to the wicked man he will find it intensely hot so much so that it will burn his mouth. The Holy Prophet sa says: 'Every man has a place in heaven and hell; those who go to heaven will occupy not only their own places but also the places which would have been occupied by those who are in hell, and those who go to hell will also occupy the places which would have been occupied by those who are in heaven. ' This too means that the inmates of heaven will take up the whole bliss, and those who are condemned, the whole punishment. When a person is unable to benefit by a blessing, he says to the other, 'Thou hast taken away my share also. ' The Holy Quran says, 'There is no one of you who shall not go down into hell. ' And then it adds, 'Then will We deliver those who had the fear of God. ' 167 This shows that every man will enter hell but God will save the righteous from pain and suffering. That is to say, they will enter hell but at the same time will be safe from it. This can only mean that the righteous people will turn everything into a source of blessing and joy for 167 Maryam, 19:71-72.
