The questioner:
He says: What is your opinion of the one who says that what is poured into the Pond is a wadi (valley) on the side?
The Shaykh:
Yes, it is reported that the Pond has something poured into it, but it is not a wadi; a river is poured into it. It is a river, not what is called a wadi; it is a river in Paradise. Yes.
The questioner:
Likewise.
The Shaykh:
In Paradise, and regarding etiquette, he said: Yes, Allah described it as having rivers flowing beneath it, and He did not mention wadis. Yes.
