Ryan was a young man, in the prime of his life. He came from a small village in the Middle East, where he lived a quiet life. He had no idea why he was chosen for this quest, but knew it must have been fate.

He had grown up following his father's footsteps, as he was taught to fear Allah and follow the rules of Islam. The Prophet said that women were to be obedient to their husbands, and they would be rewarded with heaven. He was taught that while being good to your fellow man is noble, not doing so would result in hellfire. While he still believed all of those things, there was something wrong with Islam. It seemed hypocritical for men to be allowed four wives, yet women were restricted to only one husband. If Allah is just, then why weren't both sexes treated fairly?

His curiosity lead him to learn about other religions, and it didn't take long for him to realize that Islam wasn't alone in its hypocrisy. Men in other religions were allowed multiple wives or multiple concubines as well. Surely if Christianity condemned polygamy then they'd be against Muslims taking multiple wives! This made him question everything he knew about religion. After much contemplation, Ryan concluded that God either didn't exist or simply didn't care enough to teach humanity right from wrong.

After becoming an adult and marrying his sweetheart Saffiya, Ryan left his home in search of adventure. His travels eventually led him to a strange land far away from home, where nobody spoke Arabic and nobody understood his customs. As he wandered aimlessly through the streets of this foreign city, suddenly out of nowhere two teenagers approached him from behind and tried to attack him! He tried to run away but got tripped by one of them! Before he could get back up onto his feet, the other teen kicked him in the face multiple times before twisting his arm behind his head and pulling it towards the ground as hard as possible!

"Ouch!" screamed Ryan as loud as he could. "Someone help me! I'm being mugged!" Nobody came to save him though; even though there were people everywhere who decided not to get involved and let these kids continue beating on him! Later they took everything he owned except for his clothes; even the shoes on his feet!

That night he cried himself to sleep out of fear and shame that he couldn't defend himself against these children who preyed on innocent travelers like himself! He had never felt so helpless before! Was it Allah who wanted him dead? He had always done everything right in order to please Allah after all... But apparently not enough because here he was homeless and broke without a way home while being beaten by children! Was Allah angry at him for leaving the country? Or did these kids deserve what they got?

A few days later Ryan forgot about the incident and continued living life as usual until late one night when an old man walked into where he slept at night asking for money. Upon seeing just how pathetic a state this guy was in, Ryan gave him some money from his last remaining possessions then went back to sleep... But then something weird happened... Something supernatural happened...

Ryan found himself floating among several celestial clouds surrounded by angels with pure white wings watching over people below... It soon became clear that this place was heaven itself! The Lord must have heard my prayers and brought me here so I may see it with my own eyes... This must be what heaven looks like... What an amazing sight this is...
