Would Good Non-Muslims go to hell?

[bladeknight]

If this is true, then this would mean that Allah would not be a just God. There are non-muslims in this world who are helping people, inventing things that could benefit mankind etc. Whereas, we muslims are killing each other in the name of Allah and sectrarion violence. I guess what I am trying to say is that how could Allah send people who benefit mankind to hell. How can He send good people to hell?

[MOHIB E AHLAYBAIT]

You are right how can good people go to hell, however how do you define good. Take god's definition of good and those good people will never go to hell.

There have been good non-muslims and bad non-muslims who have affected mankind in bringing new cures and new bombs. How can Allah, let go of all the good humanatarian things that certain non-muslims do and send them to hell?

P.S the reason I am asking is because I got a different answer in sunni forums. Here is the link:

So I give this guy a Million dollars and I tell him clearly: Be grateful to ME, and those close to you and be a good person.

Then this guy, takes the money, spends it on his loved one's, buys them things, and they love HIM for it. He gives to the poor and the poor LOVE HIM for it... etc and I am completely OUT of the equation...

How ungrateful of him! you know what, I think I should reward him with a Gazillion dollars!

ONLY Allah can judge, and that judgment will be with utmost justice and mercy.

And just to address the OP's longstanding concerns this probably applies to:

Israelis

Atheists

Sunnis

People who are not circumcised

And any other specific groups that he has not thought of yet, but may refer to in a new topic dealing with the same issue.

I am not sure if that was a joke. What I mean is that any good people like gandhi, mother teresa should not go to hell. That does not mean that they should not be punished, but they did good for humankind.
