• The Concept of Seven Planets


    The concept of seven planets came from the Qur'an and Al-Hadits.

    Qur'an :
    Day, verily the record of the righteous is ( preserved ) in 'Illiyin. (Qur'an : 83 : 18  : )
    Day!, Surely the record of the wicked is ( preserved ) in Sijjin ( Qur'an : 83 : 7 )

    Al-Hadits :
    ( is in `Illiyyin.) meaning, their final destination is `Illiyyin, which is the opposite of Sijjin. It has been reported from Hilal bin Yasaf that Ibn `Abbas asked Ka`b about Sijjin while he was present, and Ka`b said, "It is the seventh earth and in it are the souls of the disbelievers.'' Then Ibn `Abbas asked him about `Illiyyin, so he said, "It is the seventh heaven and it contains the souls of the believers.'' This statement -- that it is the seventh heaven -- has been said by others as well. `Ali bin Abi Talhah reported that Ibn `Abbas said concerning Allah's statement,…

    From the Qur'an and Hadits as explained in the early article ( The Concept Of Life After Death , Please ! Read that article to follow this article ), there are 14 planets as the places of the souls ( note : these places also the places of Jinn souls ). These 14 planets divide in two group, each of them  consist of seven planets ( possibly seven solar systems, who knows ).The first  group is the places of the souls of the believer and the second group is the places of the souls of the disbeliever.

    As I said before, this group of planets could be group of solar systems. Possibly one planet in one solar system or more than one planet in one solar system. It depends on the number of souls that will stay on those planets till the end of the day. These places have been prepared long before the creation of human I supposed, as explained in Qur'an, that the prophet of Adam lived in Heaven before He and his Wife went down to this Earth.

    Now let us back to the focus, the seven planets concept.
    According to my calculation as explained in the early article ( The Concept Of Life After Death ), these 14 planets are inside of the Milky Way Galaxy. The firs planet is about 1000 years of horse speed from the Earth, I supposed this planet is the place of the souls of the believer not the place of the souls of the disbeliever. The planets for the souls of the disbeliever are unknown, there is no explanation from Qur'an and Hadits. What in the Qur'an and Hadits are only the explanations of the seven planets of the souls of the believer.

    In one ayat of the Qur'an :
    To those who reject Our signs and treat them with arrogance, no opening will there be of the gates of heaven, nor will they enter the garden, until the camel can pass through the eye of the needle : Such is Our reward for those in sin. ( Qur'an : 7 : 40 ).

    "The gates of heaven" : this should be the gate of the sky / skies which are mean the gates of the places of the souls. in this case these gates are the gates of the seven places for the souls of the believer.
    The souls of the disbeliever will be rejected to enter the seven places of the souls of the believer. That is the interpretation of this ayat.

    Note : the words of heaven on this ayat, cannot be accepted as heaven where the prophet of Adam ever lived before went down to this Earth, this is because heavens consist of eight places, not seven places. The words "heaven" here is pointing the places above the Earth or places outside the Earth not pointing to heavens, heavens should be pointed after the 40 years of Mahshar procession. There are  some ayat in the Qur'an which consists of specific explanation of heavens, not this ayat. This is what I have known from the Qur'an and Hadits.

    Summary :
    There are 14 places for the souls to live after death.
    These places are planets and possibly in Milky Way Galaxy.
    These places are the Waiting Places for the souls before living in heavens or hells after the end of the day.
    At the end of the day, there will be a place called as Mahshar where all the souls will be gathered there for the final judgment . This judgment will define the soul’s final destination, to Heavens or to Hells.

    End of article.
