It appears neither of our ships are at harbor... least not the same one. I did not see a reference to this king sitting in a garden in the here after. So, I took it to mean his temporal rewards of Kinship. That is how I interpreted it and with no correlation to the Quranic verses.

Your comment seems to be related a Quranic reference to the here after. In this case I would note a couple of things. The Quranic references are not meant to be interpreted as literal events and circumstances, only as an indication of how far beyond earthly rewards, the rewards of heaven would be. In the case of being with virgins in heaven, there is no reference to anyone being abused or ravaged or whatever anyway. In fact, the Quranic reference says that virginty would be instantaineously restored so that the experience would never be lessened. And again not literal events in any case.

I realize you have a problem with anything that involves imagination beyond your temporal experience, so I doubt I will have any interest in continuing this...
