In Islam, paradise is referred to as Jannah or Firdaus. These names hold significant importance in the teachings of the faith as they represent the ultimate reward for believers who follow the teachings of Islam. Jannah is described as a place of eternal bliss, where believers will be reunited with loved ones and enjoy the pleasures of paradise as a reward for their faith and good deeds. Firdaus is considered the highest level of paradise, reserved for the most righteous believers. The concept of paradise serves as a motivation for believers to strive for righteousness and obedience to Allah in order to attain the ultimate reward in the afterlife.

No. They will be rewarded in this life only. If one dies as non-believer there is no reward for him in Qayamat and Aakhirat. It will only be the decision of Allah (SWTH) of what will happen, but most likely the person wont receive a reward on the day of judgment.

The ancient Greeks worshiped their gods for the same reason that any spiritual-religious people engage in worship: they believed that their gods were real, that those gods desired worship and reverence, and that those gods would reward those who worshiped them. While the Greek notion of "god" and "gods" changed significantly over the centuries, the fundamental reason for worshipping them did not.
some Greek stories suggest that Hermes didn't need flying shoes. that he traveled by teleportation... also some myths suggest that one could not steal or take a gods weapon. that the weapon was tied to the gods existence. as long as there was believers the gods had there weapons
The gods and goddesses of the Greeks were alike forces of nature, they simply were, they did not abuse their power in any way that was against that nature. Just as a storm can not be good or evil, or a earthquake is a reward or punishment.
