It's where you live forever and can get everything you want. Booze, broads, whatever. If you prefer experienced, you don't have to take the virgins, have the cast-offs of others.

From the Quran:
10. In a lofty Paradise.
11. Where they shall neither hear harmful speech nor falsehood,
12. Therein will be a running spring,
13. Therein will be thrones raised high,
14. And cups set at hand.
15. And cushions set in rows,
16. And rich carpets (all) spread out.
Some Hadiths:
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) as saying: He who would get into Paradise (would be made to enjoy such an everlasting) bliss that he would neither become destitute, nor would his clothes wear out, nor his youth would decline.
Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: In Paradise, there is a tree under the shadow of which a rider can travel for a hundred years.

According to Islam, the opportunity for anyone to go to heaven (also known as Paradise) has been available ever since man appeared on earth.
In prehistoric times, adherence to some morals would be sufficient to ensure a person's entry into paradise. This is akin to the life of a baby. A mother does not demand that her baby recognises her in order for her to accept the baby as hers. But as the baby grows up, the mother will make the child understand that she is the mother and will want it to follow some guidance. Why? So that the child can lead a good life during adulthood.
The statement "Muslims will go to heaven and Non-Muslims will go to hell." is only a generalisation because it is frequently mentioned in the Quran that those who will enter the "Gardens" (Heaven) are those who "believe and do good".
In other words, one must believe correctly as directed by God, as well as lead oneself according to the Commands of the Creator. This opportunity is available in Islam and is described in he Quran as the "straight way". Heaven is for people who have attained the high level of spiritual upliftment while they are on earth. Otherwise, hell is the place where purification takes place to make a soul suitable for the creation called Paradise, the abode of Bliss and Eternity, reserved only for the deserving.

Maurice, first have some knowledge, its not good to say something which is not in tht religion.
The answer is simple
If u do not ur greater chance is towards Heaven
If u do bad ur greaterchance is towards Hell
If u try ur best to do good and u r sincere in ur cause and plus u fear God then chances to heaven is far Greater.
The Key is to Fear God and Obey His Laws and then what ever sins were committed by you will be forgiven because He is Merciful.
"My Mercy takes over My Wrath."
Read Quran for more detail

I've heard (no kidding) that good and faithful Muslims, who kill their fair share of infidels, will descend to a heaven replete with virginal boys weilding turgid "members". Just wondering how many Muslims believe in that notion!

no eyes have ever seen, no ears have ever heard and no one has ever imagined.

The Qur’an and Sunnah are full of references to Paradise and the great reward that is in store for those who believe and do righteousness in this life. The reward for goodness is eternal goodness, and the reward for evil is torment and despair.
Rewards for males and females, although different according to their inherent nature that Allah has created them with, are equally gratifying. No one will feel any resentment towards others, nor envy. Peace is the state in which all will exist forever, regardless of any differences they may have had in this life.
The Qur’an says what means:
*{If any do deeds of righteousness—be they male or female—and have faith, they will enter Heaven, and not the least injustice will be done to them.}* (An-Nisaa’ 4:124)
***A Description of Heaven
*The Doors of Heaven
Hadith implies that the heaven has eight doors: Whoever performed a perfect ablution and recited shahadah then all the eight doors of the heaven are thrust open for him–he may enter from whichever door he likes. (Sahih Muslim).
The Prophet of Allah (SAW) has also told us:
When Ramadhan comes round, the doors of the skies are opened. Another tradition has it that the doors of the Heaven are opened and those of the Fire are closed (Sahih Bukhari).
*Width of the Doors of Heaven
The Prophet of Allah (SAW) said:
By Him in whose hands my soul is, the distance between the two gate posts of paradise is like the distance between Makkah and Himyar or between Makkah and Basra (Bukhari).
*The Width of Heaven
Be you foremost (in seeking) forgiveness from your Lord, and a garden of Bliss the width of whereof is as the width of heaven and earth. (Al-Hadid: 21)
The Prophet of Allah (SAW) has described the width of heaven thus: Harith’s (RA) mother came to the Prophet (SAW), Harith had been martyred during the battle of Badr. She said: "O Prophet of Allah! You know how much I loved him. If his reward is heaven, than I will not cry but if not than you see what I will do before you." The Prophet of Allah (SAW) said: "Is that just one heaven? There are very many heavens and your son is in the best of them, Al-Firdous Al-Aala." (Sahih Bukhari)
*The Width of Hundred Grades of Heaven and Sublimity of Firdaus
The Prophet of Allah (SAW) said:
Indeed, there are hundred grades of the Heaven and the distance between the two grades is as great as between the heaven and earth. Allah has prepared these grades for those who perform Jihad in the way of Allah. (Bukhari)
The Prophet of Allah (SAW) said of Firdous:
When you pray ask for Firdous, for it is in the middle of heaven and is higher in grade than the heaven and above Firdous is Allah’s throne, moreover the canals of heaven flow from Firdous. (Bukhari)
*Land and Weather of Heaven
The Prophet of Allah (SAW) said:
"And then I was showed in the heaven, I saw there were camps made of pearls and the soil was of musk." (Bukhari)
The Qur’an says of the dwellers of the heaven: They will see there neither the sun’s (excessive heat) nor the moon’s excessive cold.
*Trees in Heaven
The Prophet of Allah (SAW) said:
Indeed, there is a tree in heaven so big that if a person keeps riding on a brisk Madhamar (a specially bred horse) for a hundred years even then he would not reach the end of that tree. (Bukhari)
*Each Tree is of Gold
Abu Huraira (RA) reported that the Prophet of Allah (SAW) said:
There is no tree in the heaven that does not have a trunk of gold. (Muslim)
*A Tree That Will Manufacture Robes
There is a tree in the heaven, which will manufacture robes for the dwellers of the heaven. That tree is called Tuba.
A hadith has these words about this tree.
Tuba is a tree in the heaven, which spreads out as much as a distance that can be covered in a hundred years. Robes for the dwellers of the heaven will sprout from its buds.
*How to Plant Trees in Heaven
The Prophet of Allah (SAW) said:
In the night of Isra when I met Ibrahim (AS) he said: O Muhammad (SAW) tell your people that the heaven has pure soil and sweet water but the land is bare. If they want to plant trees in the heaven, they should say Subhan Allah Al-Hamdulillah and Allah Akbar.
*Scent of Heaven
According to Ahadith, the scent of the Heaven can be smelled from a distance of 70 years. (Sahih Al-Jame As-sagheer)
*Mansions in Heaven
The Prophet of Allah (SAW) said:
Indeed, there will be a mansion made of pearls for a believer. It will be spread over an area of 60 miles, and in it will be the household of a believer who will visit them but they will not be able to see each other. (Bukhari)
*No Sleep in Heaven
The Prophet of Allah (SAW) said:
Sleep is the sisiter of death and the dwellers of the heaven will not sleep (Silsalatul Ahadith)
*The Bazaar of Heaven
It is reported on the authority of Anas bin Malik (RA): The Prophet of Allah (SAW) said:
Indeed, there is a bazaar in the heaven where the dwellers of the Heaven will come on every Friday. The northerly wind will spray scent on them and this will enhance their beauty. And when they will return to their homes, their households will say "By Allah, your beauty has enhanced." "So has yours," they will return the compliment. (Muslim)
In short, they will be overwhelmed by Allah’s favours.
And when you look, it is there you will see a bliss and a realm magnificent. (Ad-Dahr: 20)
*Gibraeel’s (AS) Impression of Heaven
The Prophet of Allah (SAW) said:
When Allah Almighty created the heaven and the hell, He asked Jibraeel to go and take a look at what He has prepared for believers in the Heaven. Jibraeel went and had a look at what was there in the Heaven, and then he came back and expressed himself thus: By your dignity! Whoever will hear of this Heaven will certainly strive for it. Then it was said that the road to the heaven is littered with hardships, and Jibraeel was asked to take another look at the Heaven. He came back and said, "By your dignity I am afraid that nobody will be able to enter it. (Tirmizee)
This means that the heaven is such a magnificent place that whoever knew of it would certainly strive for it, but when Allah Almighty ordained that the Heaven lies in facing trials and tribulations, Gibraeel (AS) thought that nobody might be able to enter it.
