Heaven and Hell: What Really Happens After Death? The Afterlife
Hey, it’s Ali here—founder of Hiyest. When I’m not busy crafting the next drop for the brand, I find myself diving deep into the big questions of life. One thought that’s always been on my mind is what happens after we’re done here—after this life. Growing up in a religious Muslim family in India, heaven and hell were more than just concepts—they were realities we were taught to believe in since day one. But as I got older, I started to wonder, is it really that simple? Is heaven just this endless place of joy, and hell a fiery pit where you’re stuck forever?
This isn’t just some random thought that pops up when I’m alone—it’s something I’ve chewed over in deep conversations with my mom, usually after dinner usually around 11pm-1AM. She’s seen me grow from a curious kid, who questioned everything, into someone who’s still questioning but with a lot more on the line. And let me tell you, these conversations with her haven’t just shaped my thoughts—they’ve shaped how I live, and even how I think about Hiyest.
So, let me share a conversation that really stuck with me—a late-night talk with my mom that made me rethink what heaven and hell might actually be. It’s not just about what happens after we die but something much deeper.
