Such a torment for sins which a human did during their short life is unreasonable and is against the Quranic verses which emphasis on vast remission of sins by Allah. It is also against the verses which assign the likelihood of everlasting torment to Allah&rsquo;s providence and will. &nbsp; Mulla-Sadra tries to solve this controversy in his book called &ldquo;Asfar va Al-Shavahed Al-Robubiya&rdquo;.
