Jannatul Firdaus is the highest level of Jannah (paradise) – in it what no eyes have seen, no ears have heard and no human has ever imagined.
There are many verses in the Quran that give a glimpse of what Jannah would be like, but the fact is Jannah is unimaginable and can’t be translated into words.
