Harun Yahya
(Adnan Oktar)
The following hadith of our Prophet is reported in one account:
… eating the flesh of the bird comes to the mind of that person, at
which various meats arrive before him. The people of the Garden eat
as much of that as they wish. When they are replete, the bones of the
birds are gathered up. It then flies, and begins to feed in the Garden
as it wishes. (Mukhtasar Tadhkirah, al-Qurtubi, p. 58)
Again, because a person can do many things he wants in the
Garden, the Prophet told us that he can engage in agriculture not out of
necessity but for the sake of pleasure:
Abu Hurayra, may Allah be pleased with him, recounted: “While the
Prophet was preaching one day, a Bedouin was present when he
said: ‘There was a man in the Garden who sought permission from
Allah to engage in cultivation, so Allah asked him, ‘Do you not have
what you wish?’ The man answered: ‘Yes, but I like to cultivate.’
Allah granted him leave, so he rushed to plant the seed; then, he
watched to see what happens and within the blink of an eye, the seed
grew into a huge tree with fruits as big as a mountain…” (Sahih al-
Bukhari)
