if he done good he will get heaven if he do idol worshipping then ( ) .....
Idol worshipping is the biggest sin ever done by mankind, you cant insult GOD by placing some stone, many hands and tunge out and animal figur.
GOD is beautiful, he is merciful he dont harm any mankind unless they cross the evilist boundry.
he had many sin in his hand, one of the member in demolishing the God worshipping place (baber masjid).
Na tasya pratima asti (Yajurveda 32.3). It means "of that Almighty God there is no pratima (image, painting,idol) "
Enlighting from the verses of the Quran :
Quran 29:57 - Every soul will taste death, then it is to Us that you will be returned.
Quran 3:26 - Say, "O Allah, Owner of Sovereignty, You give sovereignty to whom You will and You take sovereignty away from whom You will. You honor whom You will and You humble whom You will. In Your hand is [all] good. Indeed, You are over all things competent.
Quran 3:27 - You cause the night to enter the day, and You cause the day to enter the night; and You bring the living out of the dead, and You bring the dead out of the living. And You give provision to whom You will without account."
Quran 3:30 - The Day every soul will find what it has done of good present [before it] and what it has done of evil, it will wish that between itself and that [evil] was a great distance. And Allah warns you of Himself, and Allah is Kind to [His] servants."
