2543. Sulaimān bin Buraidah narrated from his father that a man asked the Prophet ﷺ: “O Messenger of Allāh, are there horses in Paradise?” He said, “If Allāh admits you into Paradise, you will not wish to be carried, on a horse of rubies that will fly with you wherever you want in Paradise except that you will do so.” He said: “And a man asked him: ‘O Messenger of Allāh, are there camels in Paradise?’” He said: “So he ﷺ did not say what he said to his companion, rather, he said: ‘If Allāh admits you into Paradise, you will have in it whatever is desired
by your soul and pleasing to your eye.” (Da'if)
(Another chain) from 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Sābiṭ from the Prophet ﷺ and it is similar in meaning. This is more correct than the narration of Al-Mas'ūdī (a narrator in no. 2543).

Commentary
Horses of Paradise will be of rubies and will fly to wherever they are taken. In Paradise, each man will get what he desires. When questioned about the camel, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ gave a comprehensive reply that takes care of all questions pertaining to the animals.
