Illiyyun
Illiyin or Illiyun ( literally: Heaven, Upperworld) is a Quranic term referring to either the "most high" and "supreme" places above Jannah, i.e. the Garden of Eden or Paradise, in the seventh Heaven closest to the Throne of God (al-ʿArsh), or, according to a different interpretation, a register for the blessed or record of the righteous, which is mentioned in Verses 83:18–20 of the Quran. It is also understood as the abode of the believers before Resurrection. The antithesis of Illiyin is Sijjin.
