Riyad as-Salihin: Book 19, Hadith 21

Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “In Jannah there is a market to which the people will come every Friday. The northern wind will blow and shower fragrance on their faces and clothes and, consequently, it will enhance their beauty and loveliness. They will then return to their wives who will also have increased in their beauty and loveliness, and their families will say to them: ‘We swear by Allah that you have been increased in beauty and loveliness since leaving us.’ Thereupon they will reply: ‘We swear by Allah that you have also been increased in beauty and loveliness since we left you.”‘.

وعن أنس رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال‏:‏ ‏
“‏إن في الجنة سوقاً يأتونها كل جمعة‏.‏ فتهب ريح الشمال، فتحثوا في وجوههم وثيابهم، فيزدادون حسناً وجمالاً فيرجعون إلى أهليهم، وقد ازدادوا حسناً وجمالاً، فيقول لهم أهلوهم‏:‏ والله لقد ازددتم حسناً وجمالاً‏!‏ فيقولون‏:‏ وأنتم والله لقد ازددتم بعدنا حسناً وجمالاً‏!‏‏”‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
