31. 2. Sundus is fine silk, and istabraq is thick silk. In this world, gold and silk clothing are forbidden for men. Those who, by following this command, abstain from these prohibitions in the world, will have all these things available to them in Paradise. There, nothing will be forbidden; rather, whatever the people of Paradise desire will be present. "And for you therein is whatever your souls desire, and for you therein is whatever you ask for."

[33] The mention of gold bracelets is because, in ancient times, it was customary for kings to wear gold bracelets; thus, the people of Paradise will live there in royal splendor. For wearing, there will be the finest silk garments, and for sitting, high couches. It should be noted that in this world, the use of gold and silk garments is not permissible for men, but in Paradise it will be permissible; in fact, just as in this world wine is forbidden for all men and women, in Paradise, pure wine will be an invaluable blessing for the people of Paradise.
