Analysis of Islamic thinkers' views on the current creation of heaven and hell

Heaven and Hell are among the most prominent issues in the field of resurrection, which are mentioned in religious texts. Contrary to the consensus of Islamic thinkers on the principle of the existence of heaven and hell, there is a difference in its details and characteristics. One of these differences is the current creation of heaven and hell. In the meantime, the Kharijites, some Mu'tazilites, and a group of Zaydis have denied the current creation of heaven and hell. In contrast, other theologians believe in the present existence of heaven and hell. One of the most important narrations of the deniers of the current creation of heaven and hell is quoting the verses of holiness, the mortality of all creatures and the vastness of heaven. The futility of the creation of heaven and hell before the Day of Judgment and the necessity of heaven and hell being in the world of the heavens or other worlds is one of the most prominent rational arguments of the deniers. Those who believe in the current creation of the Garden of Hell, apart from the narrations, cite verses to prove their claim; Such as the verses referring to the preparation of heaven and hell, the verses related to the ascension of the Prophet (PBUH), the final verses of Surah Takathir and the verses expressing the residence of Adam and Eve in heaven.
