As much as I have been trying to keep out of this thread I had to respond. Why do you make the above assumption? Surely, when one is in paradise, one should still obey Islamic Laws.

Why would there be one law for this life, and another for the afterlife? Maybe due to the fact that this life and the next life are drastically different, for example, this life is a test, Allah tests us through differnt means in this life, whereas the next life is not a test. So why would there need to be the obeying of the same laws. That is point one.

Point two, some laws are to prevent immorality/sins, in paradise there will be none.

Point three, if one takes the haram out of a situation the situation is not haram, if I have a ham sandwich the sandwhich may be haram, but if I make another sandwich without the ham, then it is not haram. Similarly, does it not make sense that if one takes the haram parts out of a substance it seazes to be haram?

I don't see how that does not make sense, and Almighty God knows best.
