Question:
As for Paradise, the Fire, and the Hawd, will they be on this earth of ours, or will they be in another place?

Answer:
This earth is our earth, but after what is on it of mountains, trees, and other things is scraped away. Allah the Exalted said:
(105) And they ask you about the mountains, so say, "My Lord will blow them away with a blast. (106) And He will leave the earth a level plain; (107) You will not see therein a depression or an elevation."وَيَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الْجِبَالِ فَقُلْ يَنسِفُهَا رَبِّي نَسْفًا فَيَذَرُهَا قَاعًا صَفْصَفًا لَّا تَرَىٰ فِيهَا عِوَجًا وَلَا أَمْتًا
[Taha 20:105-107]
It will be level, with no valley, no mountain, no tree, no stone, and nothing else; it will be level, and the people will be gathered upon it. The Hawd is in it, its length being a month and its width a month, exclusively for the believers. I.
