n both the Qur’an and the hadith we are
                                        told that there are many delicious foods in
                                        the Garden. In particular meat and various
                                       fruits will be offered in abundance to the in-
                                       mates of the Garden. Allah tells us in the
                                      Qur’an about the quality of these gifts to the
                                     People of the Garden:

                                     And any fruit they specify and any bird-meat
                                    they desire… (Surat al-Waqi‘a: 20-21)
                                    … as recompense for what they did. (Surat al-
                                   Waqi‘a: 24)
                                        We are also told that some of the blessings
                                   offered to the People of the Garden resemble
                                   things in this world. In one verse, Allah says:

                                  Give the good news to those who have iman and
                                  do right actions that they will have Gardens with
