In Quran there are different words used for paradise such as, Jannat-ul-Khuld, Darul as-salam, jannat-ul-Firdous and so. The word jannat has the meaning of a Garden. On the Day of Judgment it will be decided by Allah Almighty that who has paradise in his fate and who will go to Hell (jahanum). No man can see the paradise (jannat) until the Judgment Day. However, Allah Almighty has presented a very detailed description of paradise in Quran. Upon reading Quran one can have an imaginary picture of paradise.
Here are a few verses of Quran relating to the description of paradise.
"(Here is) a Parable of the Garden which the righteous are promised: in it are rivers of water incorruptible; rivers of milk of which the taste never changes; rivers of wine, a joy to those who drink; and rivers of honey pure and clear. In it there are for them all kinds of fruits; and Grace from their Lord...." 47:15.
"[They will sit] on gold-encrusted thrones of happiness, reclining upon them, facing one another in [love]. Immortal youths will wait upon them with goblets, and ewers, and cups filled with water from unsullied springs by which their minds will not be clouded and which will not make them drunk; and with fruit of any kind that they choose, and with flesh of any fowl that they may desire." 56:15-21:
“And [accompanying them will be their] companions pure, most beautiful of eye, like unto pearls hidden in their shells. [This will be] a reward for what they did [during life]. No empty talk will they hear there, nor any call to sin, but only the tiding of inner soundness and peace." 56:22-26:
