Paradise and The People of Paradise!

The Noble Qur’an – Al-Ghaashiyah 88:10-16

10. In a lofty Paradise.

11. Where they shall neither hear harmful speech nor falsehood,

12. Therein will be a running spring,

13. Therein will be thrones raised high,

14. And cups set at hand.

15. And cushions set in rows,

16. And rich carpets (all) spread out.

The Noble Qur’an – Al-Mu’minun 23:8-11

Those who are faithfully true to their trusts and to their covenants;

And those who strictly guard their (five compulsory congregational) prayers (at their fixed stated hours).

These are indeed the inheritors.

Who shall inherit the Firdaus (Paradise). They shall dwell therein forever.

Hadith – Sahih Bukhari 4:468, Narrated Abu Huraira

Allah’s Apostle said, “The first group (of people) who will enter Paradise will be (glittering) like the moon when it is full. They will not spit or blow their noses or relieve nature. Their utensils will be of gold and their combs of gold and silver; in their centers the aloe wood will be used, and their sweat will smell like musk. Everyone of them will have two wives; the marrow of the bones of the wives’ legs will be seen through the flesh out of excessive beauty. They (i.e. the people of Paradise) will neither have differences nor hatred amongst themselves; their hearts will be as if one heart and they will be glorifying Allah in the morning and in the evening.“

Hadith – Sahih Bukhari 4:543, Narrated Abu Huraira , see also Bukhari 4:544

…Any person who will enter Paradise will resemble Adam (in appearance and figure). People have been decreasing in stature since Adam’s creation.

Hadith – Sahih Bukhari 4:546, Narrated Anas , also in Bukhari 6:7

…the first meal of the people of Paradise will be Extra-lobe (caudate lobe) of fish-liver.

Hadith – Mishkat, Narrator AbuHurayrah , transmitted by Tirmidhi and Darimi

Allah’s Messenger said, “The inhabitants of Paradise are hairless, beardless and have black eyes, their youth does not pass away and their garments do not wear out.“
