this is the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam explained to us how the form of al-Kautsar River. He was the sifati of the river quite detailed. Until as if we see or can imagine the situation and the atmosphere that is there end The al-Kautsar River is a river that flows over the land of heaven. The river is not a deep river. It can be understood from the phrases in the hadith of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam.
- itemitemThe Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said
هُوَ نَهْرٌ فِي الجَنَّةِ”. قال: فقال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: “رَأَيْتُ نَهْرًا فِي الجَنَّةِ
حَافَّتَاهُ قِبَابُ اللُّؤْلُؤِ. قُلْتُ: مَا هَذَا يَا جِبْرِيلُ؟ قَالَ: هَذَا الكَوْثَرُ الَّذِي أَعْطَاكَهُ اللهُ”
and it means: He is a river in heaven. "He sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said," I see the river in the heaven on both sides there are tents of pearls. I asked, 'What is Gabriel?' He replied, 'That is the al-Kautsa that Allah gave for you' "(HR at-Turmudzi 3359 and Ahmad 12697).
basically seen from the surface will look more beautiful and fun than the river in which the bottom of the invisible. Plus the ground is essentially fragrant. More perfumed than kasturi. And the pebbles are pearls and precious stones. So the river is looked at pleasing. Bathing and playing in it do not scare you. The aroma is pleasant. Make it fresh and fragrant. And standing the building of beautiful tents made of pearls. Illustrated from us how luxurious, on the other hand still feels simple. Because the camp is not towering buildings. While planting in the river, the inhabitants of heaven can relax by their side by taking beautiful drinking containers.
also appeared to the Messenger of Allaah 'alaihi wa sallam al-Kautsar. Here we repeat the story. So that we know more details about the state of this beautiful river. Anas bin Malik radhiallahu 'anhu recounts what the Prophet sawall saw' alaihi wa sallam after he saw the Nile and Euphrates
“ثُمَّ مَضَى بِهِ فِي السَّمَاءِ، فَإِذَا هُوَ بِنَهَرٍ آخَرَ عَلَيْهِ قَصْرٌ مِنْ لُؤْلُؤٍ وَزَبَرْجَدٍ، فَضَرَبَ
يَدَهُ فَإِذَا هُوَ مِسْكٌ أَذْفَرُ، قَالَ: مَا هَذَا يَا جِبْرِيلُ؟، قَالَ: هَذَا الكَوْثَرُ الَّذِي خَبَأَ لَكَ رَبُّكَ
Then I continued walking in the sky. There was another river. There is a palace of pearls and diamonds. The Prophet struck with his hand, it smelled like an adlfar oil. The Prophet asked, 'This is what O Gabriel?' Gabriel replied, 'This is the al-Kautsar lake that your Lord purposely kept for you'. "(Narrated by al-Bukhari in the Book of At-Tawheed 7079).
The al-Kautsar River is a great river. The source of the water comes from Paradise Paradise as the other rivers of heaven. Then this river flows to heaven. And also flowing into the heaven of the world (first sky). Then on the Day of Resurrection, the river in this first sky flows to the earth. Alighted the lake of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam. As the water sources of the Euphrates and Nile. It's just that these two rivers flow in our lifetime now. And humans drink and use it with various uses, in the present. As for al-Kautsar will flow on the Day of Resurrection
