Heaven...

[Deja_Vu]

Brothers and Sisters,
As I'm learning the beautiful religion of Islam, I have a few questions to ask about the afterlife. I have read before that in heaven there will be many virgins and beautiful women. My question is, in heaven, do we take on the form of human beings? I always thought we were spirits..

I have also read that we will drink wine from rivers, is wine not haram? Why is there wine in heaven if it is bad?

Please forgive me if I have offended anyone, I am asking with good intentions.

In the Gardens of delight (Paradise),

Round them will be passed a cup of pure wine;

White and delicious to the drinkers;

Neither they will have Ghoul (any kind of hurt, abdominal pain, headache, a sin, etc.) from that, nor will they suffer intoxication therefrom.


[Qur'an Surah Saffaat - 37:43-47]
