Stairway to Jannah

Share

This drawing was inspired from a song "Stairway to Heaven" but since I'm a Muslim, i altered the title to stairway to Jannah.
As far a my knowledge, Jannah means heavens in arabaic, or something close to that. Just making an islamic art because i felt so much better since it's involving beliefs and spiritual awereness. I had change the typical visions of stair to a mountain or hill with plank woods. These plank woods represent the muslim "iman" because that's the first essense for tou get moving to jannah/heaven. Without iman, you cannot do a single good deeds (with the name of the Almighty God, Allah).

I spent less than 30min to work on this in Adobe Photoshop CS4, just something to get my mood on before i study my ass off for an exam tomorrow...

enjoy & sry if this piece bother you in other way or any of my explanation is mislead in any way...

Excellent

It's neat to see some Muslim related religious art.

I enjoy the symbolism and the caption in the top left.

I'm curious, today is Easter Sunday on the Christian calendar, and my question is does Jesus come in to the Muslim perspective at all?

Blakant responds:

yeah, Jesus is the last prophet BEFORE prophet Muhammad.
Muhammad is the perfector of the religion, Jesus is the savior/messiah like Christian believe he'll return to save humankind from antichrist Dajjal (one eye cyclone), the false messiah.

Beside prophet Muhammad grave there is an empty grave, prophet Muhammad personally asked to bury Jesus beside him in the respect of him being the prophet before him.
