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). 1899. 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). 1900. 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). 1901. This hadith is the same as No. 1055. 1902. 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).
