The question of Heaven and Hell is one of the important and great issues in eschatology. It has too much effect on ethical and practical dimentions of human. Thus, it is necessary to examine the various aspects and different perspectives. Deep and subtle attitudes of mystical commentators from the exoteric and allusions considering the reality of heaven and hell is one of the attitudes that exist in this field, and it doesn’t mean that it is inconsistent with the literal meanings, rather, their themes indicates the consistency of the outward and the inward. Fom the mystical point of view a deeper interpretation is provided from heaven and hell, and from barrier and resurrection. In the sense that truth and inner state of every man for him emerges respectively as blessings or temporal and eternal torments in the world of barrier and resurrection. Every man according to his deeds have his stand which this stand for The righteous includes grades such as: Jannahs, Jannat al- Adn, Naeem, Mawa, Alia and firdaws; and for truth-concealers, abysses of hell such as: Jahanam, Ladha, Saqar, Sa’ir, Hutama, Jaheem and Hawiyah. And since from mystical point of view any reality in the world of manifestation and self-disclosure is a Name of Divine Names, therefore, heaven and hell is a manifestation of Divine Names which manifest Divine Presence. The heaven is manifestaion of Divine Beauty, and the hell is manifestaion of Names of His Majesty, thus, God is The Dominant on all of existence.
