Ask either one of them if the other guard would say that this is the way to heaven. If they say yes, then you know that the other door is the way to heaven. If they say no, then you know that it actually is the way to heaven.

Ask any of the guard - if I ask the other guard which is right door to heaven...which door he would tell ?
and whichever door the guard replies...go to the other that will be correct door
Why? you know it

The question will be:
"If this is hell will I be happy???"
If he says yes, then he is lying.
If he says no, then he is telling the truth.
Ok , decide where the door to heaven is!!!!

how many questions do you get...
because you could ask a very simple question such as "are you a guard" to see which one is lying and then ask him which door is the right one

The Disbelievers
[39:71] Those who disbelieved will be led to Hell in throngs. When they get to it, and its gates are opened, its guards will say, "Did you not receive messengers from among you, who recited to you the revelations of your Lord, and warned you about meeting this day?" They will answer, "Yes indeed. But the word `retribution' was already stamped upon the disbelievers."
[39:72] It will be said, "Enter the gates of Hell, wherein you abide forever." What a miserable destiny for the arrogant.
The Believers
[39:73] Those who reverenced their Lord will be led to Paradise in throngs. When they get to it, and its gates are opened, its guards will say, "Peace be upon you; you have won. Therefore, you abide herein forever."
[39:74] They will say, "Praise be to GOD, who fulfilled His promise to us, and made us inherit the earth, enjoying Paradise as we please." What a beautiful recompense for the workers!
[39:75] You will see the angels floating around the throne, glorifying and praising their Lord. After the equitable judgment is issued to all, it will be proclaimed: "Praise be to GOD, Lord of the universe."
