Islam 101....means akunamatata

(Hey, Flo, Sister-in-God, good to hear from you again! I've noticed throughout the forum that Muslims use the term "submission" to God frequently.
Hey MW......I don't know how you do it, but you read my mind.
To me Islam or submission is the equivalent of Akunamatata.
It means if you submit now, no worries for your souls for the rest of your life....total akunamatata or heaven.
If you don't submit now, your soul will return back to the one and will submit itself againest your will and smelling one of pumba's farts would be on your wish list over the big mess that you have placed your own self in....that's the opposite of akunamatata or what religion calls hell.
Submission could be by own will during this life or againest own will when our will is finally lost and the soul have no option but to return to its originator...It's not an offering or a gift giving, which only happens by own will....it's the eminent. THE SOUL MUST SUBMIT BACK TO THE ONE IT CAME FROM.
A muslim knows that after death, their souls that have a free will now, will eventually loose the body, the will, and attach back or submit to the higher will of god....
So at the end we are in a state of submission to a higher one, whether we like it or not...Of course if we like the submission, we are automatically happy and in total bliss...akunamatata, and if we are submitting againest our will, we are automatically in tormoil...
..So why are we fighting ourselves in this world by resisting the eminent submission??? That's the real question to all believers.
