Descriptions of Paradise from the Qur'aan and Hadeeth

"But those who have faith and work righteousness, they are companions
of the Garden, abiding in it eternally." [2:82]

"There, no sense of fatigue shall touch them, nor shay they [ever] be
evicted." [15:48]

"They will not taste death therein, except the first death, and He
will preserve them from the penalty of the Blazing Fire. [It will be]
a bounty from your Lord. That will be the supreme achievement!"
[44:56-57]

"As for those who believe and work righteous deeds, they will have
the gardens of Paradise as hospitality. Eternally therein, they will
not desire any other [place]." [18:107-108]

"Their Lord gives them glad tidings of a mercy from Himself and good
pleasure and of gardens for them wherein is lasting enjoyment."
[9:21]

Abu Hurayrah reported that Allah's Apostle (peace be upon him)
said:

"He who gets into Paradise [will be made to enjoy such an
everlasting] bliss that he will neither become destitute nor will his
clothes wear out nor will his youthfulness decline." [Muslim]

Abu Sa`eed al-Khudree and Abu Hurayrah both narrated that Allah's
Messenger (peace be upon him) said:

"There will be an announcer [in Paradise] who will make this
announcement, `Verily, there is in store for you [everlasting]
health. You will never fall ill, and you will live [forever] and
never die. You will remain young and never grow old. You will always
live in affluent circumstances and never become destitute.' [This
is
explained in] the words of Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, `And
it
will be announced to them, `This is the Paradise you have been
made
to inherit for what you used to do.''[7:43]" [Muslim]

Abu Sa`eed reported that Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him)
said:

"Death will be brought on the Day of Resurrection in the form of a
white-colored ram." [Abu Kuraib made the addition, "Then it will be
made to stand between Paradise and Hell." So far as the rest of the
hadeeth is concerned, there is perfect agreement between
narrators.] "It will be said to the people of Paradise, `Do you
recognize this?' They will raise up their necks, look towards it
and
say, `Yes, it is death.' Then a command will be given to
slaughter
it, and it will be said, `O people of Paradise, there is
everlasting
life for you and no death.' Then [addressing] the people of
Hellfire,
it will be said, `O people of Hellfire, there is everlasting life
for
you and no death.'" Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him)
then
recited the following verse pointing wit his hand to this [material]
world: "Warn them of the day of regret, when their affairs will be
decided. They are unmindful, and they do not believe." [19:39]
[Muslim]

Abu Hurayrah narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said:

"It will be said to the people of Paradise, `O people of
Paradise,
eternity [for you] and no death!' To the people of the Fire [it
will
be said], `O people of the Fire, eternity [for you] and no
death!'"
[Al-Bukhaari]
