Jami at-Tirmidhi 2543 (Book 38, Hadith 21) #28178
Desires of the Heart in Paradise

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ taught that if one is admitted into Paradise, they will have whatever their heart desires and pleases their eyes.

Sulaiman bin Buraidah narrated from his father that a man asked the Prophet ﷺ: "O Messenger of Allah, are there horses in Paradise?" He said, "If Allah admits you into Paradise, you will not wish to be carried, on a horse of rubies that will fly with you wherever you want in Paradise except that you will do so". He said: "And a man asked him: 'O Messenger of Allah, are there camels in Paradise?'" He said: "So he ﷺ did not say what he said to his companion, rather, he ﷺ said: 'If Allah admits you into Paradise, you will have in it whatever is desired by your soul and pleasing to your eye'." Another chain reports a similar narration.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمَسْعُودِيُّ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ مَرْثَدٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلْ فِي الْجَنَّةِ مِنْ خَيْلٍ قَالَ ‏"‏ إِنِ اللَّهُ أَدْخَلَكَ الْجَنَّةَ فَلاَ تَشَاءُ أَنْ تُحْمَلَ فِيهَا عَلَى فَرَسٍ مِنْ يَاقُوتَةٍ حَمْرَاءَ يَطِيرُ بِكَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ حَيْثُ شِئْتَ إِلاَّ فَعَلْتَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَسَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلْ فِي الْجَنَّةِ مِنْ إِبِلٍ قَالَ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ لَهُ مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ لِصَاحِبِهِ قَالَ ‏"‏ إِنْ يُدْخِلْكَ اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةَ يَكُنْ لَكَ فِيهَا مَا اشْتَهَتْ نَفْسُكَ وَلَذَّتْ عَيْنُكَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ مَرْثَدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَابِطٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ نَحْوَهُ بِمَعْنَاهُ وَهَذَا أَصَحُّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ الْمَسْعُودِيِّ

QUICK LESSONS:
Do good deeds so that one may gain admission into paradise

EXPLANATIONS:
In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was asked about horses and camels in paradise. He responded by saying that if Allah admits someone into paradise, they will have whatever their soul desires and pleases their eyes. This hadith teaches us that Allah is generous and merciful to those who are admitted into paradise; He grants them whatever they wish for as long as it is pleasing to Him. It also teaches us to be content with what we have here on earth since we can never imagine what awaits us in the hereafter. We should strive to do good deeds so that we may be among those who are granted admission into paradise where all our wishes will come true!
