doomsday
(
qiyamah
) points to the 
various 
experiences of one’s consciousness during the process of death
. 
The imminent doomsday is one’s personal death. For, with death, an 
unchangeable state of existence known as the afterlife commences.

The Quran makes a clear statement 
“heaven as a parable (representation, similitude)”
16
and thus 
makes it evident that all expositions of ‘heaven’ in the Quran are 
symbolic and metaphoric. It is quite challenging to both comprehend 
and talk about a state of existence in which the 
‘awakened’ ones
will dwell, in congruence with the Power and other Name qualities 
they will be endowed with, and far from all bodily limitations. This
