Qur'an: Eternal Torture

One day, some clever clogs asked Muhammad, "Excuse me, Mr Prophet sir, if your God is both 'All-Forgiving, Compassionate to each', and 'Omnipotent', as you keep saying, over and over again, why is he going to send a significant portion of the souls he created to eternal damnation, to be tortured literally forever?"

Muhammad was stumped by this. He thought about it for a long time, and, eventually, the voice in his head (God, speaking through the Angel Gabriel) answered with a resounding 'BECAUSE!':

"Had We wished, We could have granted each soul its right guidance. But my decree is binding: I shall fill Hell with both jinn and humans."
