Editing Heaven (section)

==== Ahmadiyya ====
According to the [[Ahmadiyya]] view, much of the imagery presented in the Quran regarding Heaven, but also Hell, is metaphorical. They propound the verse which describes, according to them, how the life to come after death is different from the life on Earth. The ''Quran'' says: "From bringing in your place others like you, and from developing you into a form which at present you know not."<ref>{{qref|56|61|b=y}}.</ref> According to [[Mirza Ghulam Ahmad]], the founder of the [[Ahmadiyya]] sect in Islam, the soul will give birth to another rarer entity and will resemble the life on earth in the sense that this entity will bear a similar relationship to the soul, as the soul bears relationship with the human existence on earth. On earth, if a person leads a righteous life and submits to the will of God, his or her tastes become attuned to enjoying spiritual pleasures as opposed to carnal desires. With this, an "embryonic soul" begins to take shape. Different tastes are said to be born in which a person given to carnal passions finds no enjoyment. For example, sacrifice of one's own rights over that of other's becomes enjoyable, or that forgiveness becomes second nature. In such a state a person finds contentment and Peace at heart and at this stage, according to Ahmadiyya beliefs, it can be said that a soul within the soul has begun to take shape.<ref>{{cite book |author=Ahmad |first=Mirza Tahir |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=iU1Yn4sSXEkC&q=elementary+study+of+islam |title=An Elementary Study of Islam |publisher=Islam International Publications |year=1997 |isbn=978-1-85372-562-3 |page=50}}</ref>
