Throughout our lives, we strive to believe in and serve Allah, with the ultimate goal of being admitted to heaven (jannah). We hope that our eternal lives will be spent there, so of course people are curious about what it is like. Only Allah knows, but He describes some of it for us in the Quran. What will heaven be like?
Pleasure of AllahOf course, the greatest reward in Heaven is receiving Allah's pleasure and mercy. This honor is saved for those who believe in Allah and strive to live in accordance with His guidance. The Quran says: "Say: Shall I give you glad tidings of things Far better than those? For the righteous are Gardens in nearness to their Lord... and the good pleasure of Allah. For in Allah's sight are (all) His servants" (3:15). "Allah will say: This is a day in which the truthful will profit from their truth. Theirs are gardens, with rivers flowing beneath - their eternal Home. Allah is well-pleased with them, and they with Allah. That is the great salvation" (5:119).
Greetings of "Peace!"Those who enter Heaven will be greeted by angels with words of peace. In Heaven, one will have only positive emotions and experiences; there will be no hatred, anger, or upset of any kind. "And We shall remove from their breasts any hatred or sense of injury" (Quran 7:43). "Gardens of perpetual bliss: they shall enter there, as well as the righteous among their fathers, their spouses, and their offspring. Angels shall enter from every gate (with the salutation): 'Peace be with you, that you persevered in patience! Now how excellent is the final home!" (Quran 13:23-24). “They will not hear therein ill speech or commission of sin. But only the saying of: 'Peace! Peace!'" (Quran 56:25-26).

All of us wants to go to Heaven when we die.Herewith I attached an article about the Heaven as related in the Qur'an.The word Jannah means garden and everyone loves to walk in the garden and to have a garden by their house.Personally,I love to live in the house within the garden.
However,do we have what it takes to go to Heaven for muslims?
Just ponder on what it is like to be in The Jannah as mentioned in the Qur'an and let us work for it.By the way,it is the mercy of Allah only that can get us admitted to His Heaven.
