This article presents the early history of the faith in Islamic Paradise (al-janna or the Garden)... more This article presents the early history of the faith in Islamic Paradise (al-janna or the Garden) from the seventh to the 12th century ce. The focus of the article is to trace three major stages in the developing doctrine of the Islamic afterlife: doctrinal innovation in the Qur’an and early biography of the prophet Muhammad (Sirat Rasul Allah), elaboration in traditions of the prophet (hadiths), and formalization in eschatological manuals. While providing an introductory survey of the afterworld, the author also considers some of the textual problems and ensuing controversies that have arisen in the field of Islamic history.
