وَعَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ ثُمَامَةَ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ. عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ قَالَ:
قَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ: يَا أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ، تَزْعُمُ أَنَّ أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ يَأْكُلُونَ وَيَشْرَبُونَ. فَقَالَ: " أَجَلْ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ إِنَّ أَحَدَهُمْ لَيُعْطَى قُوَّةَ مِائَةِ رَجُلٍ فِي الْأَكْلِ، وَالشُّرْبِ، وَالْجِمَاعِ، وَالشَّهْوَةِ ". قَالَ: الَّذِي يَأْكُلُ يَكُونُ لَهُ الْحَاجَةُ ؟ فَقَالَ: " حَاجَةُ أَحَدِهِمْ عَرَقٌ يَخْرُجُ كَرِيحِ الْمِسْكِ، فَيَضْمُرُ بَطْنُهُ

✧ A man from the People of the Book said: 'O Abu al-Qasim, you claim that the people of Paradise eat and drink.' He said: 'Yes, and by the One in whose hand is my soul, one of them will be given the strength of a hundred men in eating, drinking, intercourse, and desire.' He said: 'The one who eats will have need (to relieve himself)?' He said: 'The need of one of them is a sweat that exudes like the fragrance of musk, and his belly will become lean.'
