The answer

The people of Paradise are beardless and without body hair (jurd murd), with kohl-lined eyes. Their youth does not fade, nor do their garments wear out. They enjoy complete bliss and eternal life, which differs from life in this world. The fact that the people of Paradise are jurd murd (beardless and without body hair) suits the perfection of their enjoyment and enhances their beauty. It removes anything that might obscure their good looks and completes their pleasure. Moreover, their characteristics and conditions are fitting for the perfect nature of Paradise, which differs from this imperfect world.

In Paradise, a Muslim is given whatever he desires, but these desires differ from the desires of the people of this world, because the souls of the people of Paradise are pure and noble, and their desires are limited to what aligns with the perfection of enjoyment therein. It is not appropriate to measure the bliss of Paradise against what a person wishes for in this world, for each abode has its own specific rulings. Therefore, a Muslim's concern and effort should be focused on reaching Paradise through righteous deeds and truthful words. Then, he will enjoy therein what no eye has seen and no ear has heard.
