حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُؤْمِنِ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " إِنَّ فِي الْجَنَّةِ لَشَجَرَةً يَسِيرُ الرَّاكِبُ فِي ظِلِّهَا مِائَةَ عَامٍ لَا يَقْطَعُهَا " .
Narrated Anas bin Malik: The Prophet said, "There is a tree in Paradise (which is so big and huge that) if a rider travels in its shade for one hundred years, he would not be able to cross it."

Hadith Commentary:
In Surah Al-Waqi’ah, Allah the Exalted has mentioned regarding the shade of Paradise: “And extended shade” (Al-Waqi’ah: 30),
meaning that there, the shade of the trees will be spread far and wide.
O Allah, grant all of us who value this book that shade of Paradise.
It is as clear as daylight from the ahadith and verses that Paradise is the name of a tangible reality. Those who consider Paradise to be merely a matter of dreams and imagination are caught in a dangerous error.
For such people with erroneous beliefs, if Paradise remains nothing more than a dream and something impossible to interpret, it is not surprising.
Allahumma la taj‘alna minhum. Ameen.
