Is a "dhira‘" a meter, and is it true that the people of Paradise will be in the image of Yusuf's face, peace be upon him, and if that is the case, how will a man recognize his wife or his friend?
A meter is one hundred centimeters, and an arm's length varies in length, longer or shorter, depending on the person. The people of Paradise will enter Paradise in the form of Adam. It has been established that Yusuf (Joseph) was given half of beauty, and it was said that he was given half of Adam's beauty. If the Hadith from al-Tabarani is authentic: "What is between the aborted fetus and the old decrepit man will be resurrected on the Day of Judgment in the form of Adam, with the heart of Job, and the beauty of Yusuf, beardless and kohl-eyed," then it is to be taken. If it is not authentic, then the general meaning of the Hadith in the two Sahih collections indicates that they will be at the level of Adam's beauty. The people of Paradise will recognize their spouses and friends, for beauty does not conceal the original features, and they will easily find their dwellings and their families.
