Ahadith

Anas relates that the Holy Prophet said: In Paradise there is a market place where people will gather every week and the northern breeze will scatter perfume over their faces and clothes whereby they will increase in their good looks, then they will return to their families who will also have increased in their good looks and beauty. The members of their families will say to them: You have become more handsome and more beautiful. And they will answer: You too have become more handsome and beautiful during our absence (Muslim).

Sahil ibn Sa‘ad relates that the Holy Prophet said: The dwellers of Paradise will look at each other from their mansions as you look at the planets in the sky (Bokhari and Muslim).

Sahl ibn Sa‘ad relates: I was present in the company of the Holy Prophet in which he described the conditions of Paradise and said in the end: in it there is that which no eye has seen, no ear has heard nor has the mind of man conceived it. Then he recited: They withdraw themselves from their beds in the latter part of the night for Prayer, and they call on their Lord in fear and hope, and spend out of that which We have bestowed on them. No one knows what bliss is kept hidden from them as a reward for what they used to do (32. 17-18). (Bokhari and Muslim).

Abu Sa‘id and Abu Hurairah relate that the Holy Prophet said: When the dwellers of Paradise enter Paradise a crier will announce: You will live for ever and will not die, you will be in health and will not fall ill, you will be young and will not grow old and you will be in comfort and will not encounter any trouble whatever (Muslim).

Abu Hurairah relates that the Holy Prophet said: The best of you in Paradise will be asked: Wish whatever you desire. He will wish and wish and will be asked: Have you wished? He will answer: Yes. He will be told: You have whatever you wished and the like of it over again (Muslim).

Abu Sa‘id Khudri relates that the Holy Prophet said: Allah, the Lord of honour and glory, will call the dwellers of Paradise and they will respond: Here we are, our Lord, and all good is in Thy hands. He will ask them: Are you happy? They will answer: Why should we not be happy, our Lord. when You have bestowed upon us that which You have not bestowed on any of Your other creation. He will say to them: Shall I bestow upon you even better than that? They will inquire: What could be better than that? He will say: I bestow upon you My Pleasure and I shall never hereafter be wroth with you (Bokhari and Muslim).

This hadith is the same as No, 1055.

Suhaib relates that the Holy Prophet said: When the dwellers of Paradise will have entered Paradise, Allah, the Blessed and the Exalted, will ask them: Do you desire anything more that I should give you? They will answer: Have you not made our countenances bright? Have you not admitted us to Paradise and delivered us from the Fire? Thereupon, Allah will lift the veil from His countenance and the dwellers of Paradise will not have known anything dearer to them than looking at their Lord (Muslim).
