The answer

If the speaker intends the Gardens of Delight, then this statement is impermissible, due to its implication of diminishing the reward of Allah and preferring a worldly beloved over it. The world, in the sight of Allah, is not even worth the wing of a mosquito. It also contains an exaggeration in the love of the beloved and suggests a flaw in the speaker's perception, and an emptiness in their heart regarding attachment to Allah and the Hereafter. It should be avoided.
