To those of you have non-Muslim friends, how do you accept and approve the idea that, according to your own faith non-Muslims will be spending the rest of eternity in pain and suffering whilst you will rejoice in paradise?

Do you just ignore this? Do you accept it with a certain degree of sadness? Does it make you happy?

I wouldn't be able to live with myself if my governing ideology dictated that my friends who believed different things than me would be punished for ever while I would be rewarded.

I wanted to ask you something else... quran does not give muslims any sureness that you will be in paradise yourselves.
the only way to be sure of paradise is to die as a martyr - otherwise you can NEVER know whether you will be in paradise or not. That is why many muslims fear death and die in trembling as to what will happen to them.
in christianity it is the opposite, the death of Christ on the Cross is a historical fact and christians are SURE that when they die they will go to heaven to be with the Lord Jesus for ever.
dont you think it is fair and good of Allah to treat his followers this way and loking at them as they die in agony and terrible fear since he didnt provide muslims with salvation?
secondly, Jesus is a living God and He touches the lives of people, He heals them, blesses them financially, helps them, guides them and speaks to them. Allah is a far awaya and a distant remote god and he is not invlved in thelives of muslims in any practical way then how can you even be sure he exists?
