Paradise - No one can comprehend paradise, why? Because it has never been seen before, the eye has never seen anything like it before, no one can imagine it and it cannot be described. No sight has seen anything like it. No one has ever heard about it, and no one can ever imagine it in the heart and how it looks like.
For example - there are bananas in paradise however, the only similarity between the bananas of this world and paradise is the name. The bananas in paradise are different!
The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم was offering prayer once and whilst leading the prayer he leaned forward like he wanted to catch something. They asked him after the prayer as to why he did that, he replied paradise passed by him, i.e he saw some of it and he said, there was some grapes, and he tried to grab it but he wasn't able to. He said, if I caught the cluster of the grape, all the people would be able to eat from it till the judgement day.
* The people would be able to eat from it till the Judgement day!
On the other hand the prophet said, if someone felt a little thump of hell fire, if it just opened up a little in the East Coast of the world and he was in the West coast of the world it would burn him.
- Shaykh Musa Jibril حفظه الله
