Hell In Islam
In Islam, Jahannam () is the place of punishment for Islamic views on sin, evildoers in the afterlife, or hell. This notion is an integral part of Islamic theology,#ETISN2009, Thomassen, "Islamic Hell", ''Numen'', 56, 2009: p.401 and has occupied an important place in Muslim belief.#CLLHiIT2016, Lange, "Introducing Hell in Islamic Studies", 2016: p.3 The concept is often called by the proper name "Jahannam", but other names refer to hell and these are also often used as the names of different gates to hell. The term "Jahannam" itself is used not only for hell in general but (in one interpretation) for the uppermost layer of hell. The importance of Hell in Islamic doctrine is that it is an essential element of the Islamic eschatology, Day of Judgment, which is one of Iman (Islam)#The Six Articles of Faith, the six articles of faith (belief in God, the angels, books, prophets, Day of Resurrection, and decree) "by which the Muslim faith is traditionally defined".

Juz'
A ''juzʼ'' (Arabic: ; : , ''ajzāʼ''; ) is one of thirty parts of varying lengths into which the Quran is divided. It is also known as parah ( Persian: ) in Iran and subsequently the Indian subcontinent. There are 30 ''ajzāʼ'' in the Quran, also known as – ''sipārah'' ("thirty parts"; in Persian ''si'' means 30). During medieval times, when it was too costly for most Muslims to purchase a manuscript, copies of the Qurʼān were kept in mosques and made accessible to people; these copies frequently took the form of a series of thirty parts (''juzʼ''). Some use these divisions to facilitate recitation of the Qurʼān in a month—such as during the Islamic month of Ramadan, when the entire Qurʼān is recited in the '' Tarawih'' prayers, typically at the rate of one ''juzʼ'' a night. Subdivisions Most Juz' are named after the first word of the first verse of the Juz'. Each Juz' is divided into two ''Hizb'' (lit. "two groups", plural: Aḥzāb). Therefore, there are 60 ...

Monotheism
Monotheism is the belief that one God is the only, or at least the dominant deity.F. L. Cross, Cross, F.L.; Livingstone, E.A., eds. (1974). "Monotheism". The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church (2 ed.). Oxford: Oxford University Press. A distinction may be made between exclusive monotheism, in which the one God is a singular existence, and both inclusive and pluriform monotheism, in which multiple gods or godly forms are recognized, but each are postulated as extensions of the same God. Monotheism is distinguished from henotheism, a religious system in which the believer worships one god without denying that others may worship different gods with equal validity, and monolatry, monolatrism, the recognition of the existence of many gods but with the consistent worship of only one deity. The term ''monolatry'' was perhaps first used by Julius Wellhausen. Monotheism characterizes the traditions of Abrahamic religions, Abrahamic religions such as Judaism, Samaritanism, Christi ...
