The beauty of Jannah

· 3 Muharram 1438 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I was wondering about Jannah, if it is said to be beyond human imagination, why have things been described in it such as rivers of wine, honey, milk, fair skin, food and drink, etc.

Answer

You cannot understand the extent of the beauty. However, it does not mean that you cannot understand the comfort and beauty itself.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
