Dear Venus,
1. They have the free-will.But since they're mentally ill ,they cannot control their actions by free-will.
2 and 3. They have no responsibility in their actions.So they can go to heaven.But there are many levels and degrees in heaven.
4. The universe has been ornamented with every sort of art, animate and inanimate, in every scale; it is like an endless parade or exhibition of works of art, designed to attract all people and cause them to reflect. Beauty of landscape, its extraordinary diversity and magnificent adornment, the sheer abundance and flow of events constitute a reality, definite and present, to our senses and minds. The reality argues the existence of an agent who brings it into being. Through the reality of His works and deeds we come to know the Doer, and so His Name or Names. Through these Names, manifested in objects and beings, we try to know His Attributes, through the channels and prayers opened to our hearts we yearn, we strive to know Him in Himself, Exalted is He. This raising up of our being is inspired across a wide domain of reality─things, events, the vast realm of man’s stewardship in the universe; the relation or con¬nection between man and the universe and the realm of God’s Names and Attributes.
Now let us try to express the Creator’s purpose by a simple analogy.
Let us think of an expert craftsman or artist. Say that this artist is an extraordinary sculptor who with a few strokes of hammer and chisel, can produce life-like sub¬jects from the hardest stone, expressive of the most deli¬cate feelings. Or a skilful worker in wood who can, as it were, pour his soul into walnut or beech or bring (as the expression is) a piece of ebony to life. Or an excellent painter whose brush-strokes can produce the most ex¬quisite combination of colours, which stir the beholders with their beauty. And to these kinds of skills, we might add many more. It is impossible to know the artist as an artist─if he does not show his abilities. We may come to know him and deduce his abilities either from his works of art or from the process through which he produces them. Every potentiality wishes to reveal the reality hid¬den within itself, to demonstrate what it knows by clothing itself in an outward form, by putting on an ex¬ternal body. Seeds strive to sprout; sperms strive to join the egg in the womb; and bubbles floating in the air strive to reach ground as droplets of water. They all en¬dure the effort necessary simply because of the desire to show in reality the potentiality within themselves.
The urge to show our potentialities, and thus to be seen and known by others is in fact an expression of weakness or defect, as all beings and their wishes are merely the shadow of the original essence. However, the skilful Creator is absolutely free from such defects or weak-nesses. It must never be forgotten that neither any single nor composite manifestation of the essence is similar to the essence.
All artistry which fills the universe informs us of the thousands of the Names of God. Each of the Names, manifested in diverse memorials of the art of creation, illuminate our way and guide us to know the Attributes of that Being, the One Creator; they stimulate and awaken our hearts by the signs, messages, of that hidden Creator present, carried to our senses.
The Creator wants to introduce Himself to us thor¬oughly without leaving anything unclear. Through the variety and beauty of the Creation, He wants to show His Splendour; through the magnificent order and harmony in the universe He wants to show His Will and Might; and through the fact that He bestows everything upon us, including the secret wishes and desires of our hearts and minds, He wants to show His Mercy, Compassion, and Grace. And He has many more Names and Attributes through which He wants to make Himself known.
In other words, He places objects, which He knows in His all-encompassing knowledge, into this world in order to manifest His Might and Will. In this way, by passing all things through the prism of the intellect and under¬standing of conscious beings, He arouses wonder, admi¬ration, and appreciation in the earthly and heavenly do¬mains.
Just as a skilful artist manifests his talents through his works of art, in the elevated sense, so the Owner of this universe, simply to manifest the Might and Omnipotence of His Creativity, created the universe.
5) Angels have no role in creation.It may be said that the existence of the angels and spirit beings is as definite as that of human beings and animals. Indeed, reality undoubtedly requires and wisdom certainly demands that like the earth the heavens have inhabitants, and that its inhabitants are intelligent, and suitable for the heavens. In the tongue of the Shari‘a, those inhabitants, of which there are numerous kinds, are called angels and spirit beings.
Reality requires it to be thus. For despite the earth’s smallness and insignificance in relation to the heavens, its being filled with intelligent beings and from time to time being emptied and then refilled with new ones suggests -indeed, states clearly- that the heavens too, with their majestic constellations like adorned palaces, are filled with animate creatures, the light of the light of existence, and conscious and intelligent creatures, the light of animate creatures. Like man and the jinn, those creatures are spectators of the palace of the world, and ponderers over the book of the universe, and heralds of this realm of dominicality. With their universal and comprehensive worship, they represent the glorification of the large and universal beings in the universe.
The nature of the universe surely points to their existence. For since it is embellished and decked out with uncountable numbers of finely adorned works of art and meaningful decorations and wise embroideries, it self-evidently requires the gazes of thoughtful admirers and wondering, appreciative lovers; it demands their existence. Yes, just as beauty requires a lover, so is food is given to the hungry. Thus, the sustenance of spirits and nourishment of hearts in this boundless beauty of art looks to the angels and spirit beings; it points to them. For while this infinite adornment requires an infinite duty of contemplation and worship, man and the jinn can perform only a millionth of that infinite duty, that wise supervision, that extensive worship. This means that boundless varieties of angels and spirit beings are necessary to perform those duties, and to fill and inhabit the mighty mosque of the world with their ranks.
