Hope this helps .

Extracts from the book "Al-Jannah Wa An-Naar by Umar Sulaiman al-Ashqar"

The delights of Paradise surpass the imagination and defy description. They are like nothing known to the people of this world; no matter how advanced we may become, what we achieve is as nothing in comparison with the joys of the Hereafter. As is mentioned in several reports, there is nothing like Paradise:

"It is sparkling light, aromatic plants, a lofty palace, a flowing river, ripe fruit, a beautiful wife and abundant clothing, in an eternal abode of radiant joy, in beautiful soundly-constructed high houses". [Ibn Maajah, as-Sunan, Kitaab az-Zuhd, Baab Sifaat al-Jannah, 2/1448, no. 4332. Ibn Hibbaan narrated it in his saheeh]

The Sahabah asked the Prophet (saw) about the buildings of Paradise and he replied with a wonderful description:

"Bricks of gold and silver, and mortar of fragrant musk, pebbles of pearl and sapphire, and soil of saffron. Whoever enters it is filled with joy and will never feel miserable; he will live there forever and never die; their clothes will never wear out and their youth will never fade." [Ahmad, at-Tirmidhi, ad-Daarimee, Mishkaat al-Masaabeeh, 3/29, sahih].

Allah (swt) indeed spoke the truth when He (swt) said: "And when you look there [in Paradise] you will see a delight [that cannot be imagined]. and a great dominion" [76:20]

What Allah (swt) has kept hidden from us the delights of Paradise is beyond our ability to comprehend: al-Bukhaari reported from Abu Hurayrah (ra) that the Prophet (saw) said that Allah (swt) said, "I have prepared for My slaves what no eye has seen, no ear has heard and no human heart can imagine". Recite if you wish, "No person know what is kept hidden for them of joy as a reward for what they used to do." (32:17).

In the version reported by Muslim from Abu Hurayrah, there is the addition, "Never mind what Allah has told you; what He has not told you is EVEN greater".

The Prophet (saw) told us about the characteristics of the palaces of some of his wives and companions. al-Bukhaari and Muslim report that Abu Hurayrah (ra) said, "Jibreel came to the Prophet (saw) said, "O Messenger of Allah, Khadeejah is coming, carrying a container of food. When she comes to you, convey to her greetings of peace from her Rabb and from me, and give her the glad tidings of a house in Paradise made of brocade, in which there is no noise or exhaustion."" [Mishkaat al-Masaabeeh, 3/266]

السلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركاته

Here is a brief description of Jannah :

The gound of paradise will be of Saffron.

The sand on the ground of Jannah (saffron) will be of pebbles and rubies.

The bricks of the palaces in Jannah will be of gold and silver.

The cement between the bricks will be of strong musk.

The thickness of the carpets in those palaces will be equivalent to the journey of 500 years.

The gardens outside the palaces will have streams flowing beneath them.

The streams of Jannah will be crystal clear water, of pure milk, and of honey.

There will be no evil, anger, pride, jealousy, etc. in Jannah.

Upon enjoying the food and fruits in Jannah, there will be no need to relieve oneself. Passing wind and sweat will be sufficient for digestion.

The greatest bounty in Jannah will be the announcement from Allah about His eternal Ridhaa (pleasure) for the dwellers of Jannah.

Allah Ta’ala says in the noble Qur’aan, "And the Ridhwaan of Allah Ta’ala is the greatest"

The greatest pleasure of Jannah can be achieved by one doing acts of virtue for the sole pleasure of Allah, thus making his life on earth or brief experience of the greatest pleasure in Jannah.

Daily we should make this supplication for jannah

اللهم إني اسألك الجنة
اللهم إني اسألك الجنة
اللهم إني اسألك الجنة

I think you give a brief to Allah about ones house, since he expects a little input on your part about your house, then Allah just adds his own skill to make it miraculous mashallah. so my advice to all believers is to start collecting ideas for there own home in this life and the hereafter. Does'nt matter how extravagant it may be, Allah will just make it better in the hereafter inshallah.
