Hadith 2835
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَاللَّفْظُ لِعُثْمَانَ ، قَالَ عُثْمَانُ : حَدَّثَنَا ، وقَالَ إِسْحَاقُ : أَخْبَرَنَا جَرِيرٌ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ يَأْكُلُونَ فِيهَا وَيَشْرَبُونَ ، وَلَا يَتْفُلُونَ ، وَلَا يَبُولُونَ ، وَلَا يَتَغَوَّطُونَ ، وَلَا يَمْتَخِطُونَ " ، قَالُوا : فَمَا بَالُ الطَّعَامِ ؟ ، قَالَ : " جُشَاءٌ وَرَشْحٌ كَرَشْحِ الْمِسْكِ يُلْهَمُونَ التَّسْبِيحَ وَالتَّحْمِيدَ كَمَا تُلْهَمُونَ النَّفَسَ " ،
Jabir reported: I heard Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) as saying that the inmates of Paradise would eat and drink but would neither spit, nor pass water, nor void excrement, nor suffer catarrah. It was said: Then, what would happen with food? Thereupon he said: They would belch and sweat (and it would be over with their food), and their sweat would be that of musk and they would glorify and praise Allah as easily as you breathe.

وحَدَّثَنِي الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْحُلْوَانِيُّ ، وَحَجَّاجُ بْنُ الشَّاعِرِ كِلَاهُمَا ، عَنْ أَبِي عَاصِمٍ ، قَالَ حَسَنٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، يَقُولُ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " يَأْكُلُ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ فِيهَا وَيَشْرَبُونَ وَلَا يَتَغَوَّطُونَ وَلَا يَمْتَخِطُونَ وَلَا يَبُولُونَ ، وَلَكِنْ طَعَامُهُمْ ذَاكَ جُشَاءٌ كَرَشْحِ الْمِسْكِ يُلْهَمُونَ التَّسْبِيحَ وَالْحَمْدَ كَمَا تُلْهَمُونَ النَّفَسَ " ، قَالَ : وَفِي حَدِيثِ حَجَّاجٍ : طَعَامُهُمْ ذَلِكَ ،

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Maulana Abdul Aziz Alvi
Hadith Commentary: Benefits and Issues: The food and nourishment in Paradise will be so delicate that the stomach will be emptied and lightened through pleasant belching and perspiration, and no kind of waste will be produced in the body that would require expulsion. And, just like breathing, the tasbih (glorification) and tahmid (praise) of Allah will continuously flow on their tongues at all times, without any kind of hardship, effort, attention, or special arrangement being necessary.
