Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: (In a date palm with no thorns)]

Allah the Exalted said:
[They will be] among lote trees with thorns removedفِي سِدْرٍ مَخْضُودٍ
[Al-Waqi'ah: 28] (The date palm) is: a well-known tree, cool, with a refreshing shade, but do not think that the date palm in Paradise is like the date palm in this world; the name is the same, but the meaning is different,As Allah the Exalted said:
And no soul knows what has been hidden for them of comfort for eyes as reward for what they used to do.فَلا تَعْلَمُ نَفْسٌ مَا أُخْفِيَ لَهُمْ مِنْ قُرَّةِ أَعْيُنٍ جَزَاءً بِمَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ
[Al-Sajdah: 17] If what is in Paradise were like what is in this world, we would know it, but the name is agreed upon, while the reality of the thing differs,
[They will be] among lote trees with thorns removedفِي سِدْرٍ مَخْضُودٍ
[Al-Waqi'ah: 28] meaning: that it has no thorns.
and of a tamarisk tree with clustered fruitوَطَلْحٍ مَنْضُودٍ
[Al-Waqi'ah: 29] (The banana tree) It was said: that it is the banana tree,And that which is full of fruit: Its meaning is that which is full of fruit, but even so, what is in Paradise is not like what is in this world.
And extended shadeوَظِلٍّ مَمْدُودٍ
[Al-Waqi'ah: 30] (Shade) meaning: it has no end, because there is no sun in Paradise, but it is shade; some of the Salaf described it as being like the light that is near the rising of the sun, where you find the earth filled with light but the sun is not seen, so it is (extended shade) meaning: extended in area, extended in time, always.
