The answer

Al-Saadi said in his that "fruits of their choice" (faakihatun mimma yatakhayyaroon) means the people of Paradise will have whatever fruits they desire, and "and flesh of fowl, of all that they desire" (wa lahmut tairi mimma yashtahoon) means whatever kinds of fowl they desire, roasted or cooked. Al-Qurtubi reported that "fruits of their choice" means they choose whatever they wish due to its abundance, or that it is chosen, pleasing fruit. He also mentioned Al-Tirmidhi’s on the authority of Anas ibn Malik that Al-Kawthar is a river in Paradise, in it are birds whose necks are like the necks of camels, and those who eat them are more beautiful than them.
