اُردوEn
وَجَنَّتَانِ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ آنِيَتُهُمَا وَمَا فِيهِمَا ، وَجَنَّتَانِ مِنْ كَذَا آنِيَتُهُمَا وَمَا فِيهِمَا ، وَمَا بَيْنَ الْقَوْمِ وَبَيْنَ أَنْ يَنْظُرُوا إِلَى رَبِّهِمْ إِلَّا رِدَاءُ الْكِبْرِ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ فِي جَنَّةِ عَدْنٍ " .
And the believers will go to them in turn, and there will be two gardens whose vessels and all other things will be of silver, and there will also be two gardens whose vessels and all other things will be of gold. For the people of Paradise of Eden, only a veil of majesty will be between them and the sight of Allah, which will be over His (blessed) face.

Hadith Commentary:
In one narration, it is mentioned that the length of this shelled pearl will be sixty miles.
(Sahih al-Bukhari, Book of the Beginning of Creation, Hadith: 3243)
From the apparent wording of this hadith, it seems that the inhabitants of Paradise will not be able to see Allah, because there will be a veil of majesty over His Face.
However, in other ahadith, it is explicitly stated that the inhabitants of Paradise will have the vision of Allah, the Exalted.
Thus, it is mentioned in a hadith:
When the people of Paradise enter Paradise, Allah, the Exalted, will say:
“Do you need anything so that I may grant you more?” They will say:
“Have You not brightened our faces? Have You not admitted us into Paradise? Have You not saved us from the Fire of Hell?” He will say:
Then the veil will be lifted, and they will behold the Face of Allah.
Among all that they will have been given in Paradise, nothing will be more beloved to them than the vision of their Lord. Then the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) recited this verse:
“For those who have done good is the best reward and even more besides.”
(Yunus: 26 and Sahih Muslim, Book of Faith, Hadith: 449, 450(181))
