Well, comparing the Christian Heaven and the Muslim Heaven, the

big boobs.


Err, there is some discussin on that as the word can have other meanings


Boobs? Yes, you are correct. As in most translations a word can be
interpreted several ways. "Jannah" literally means "garden" I believe,
but is commonly used, in the Koran, to mean paradise, the literal term
for which is " Firdaus". The word "ka'ib" used to describe the Houri
can mean "rounded" prominent" "swelling" " fully developed", but
granted not "boobs" per se. Just as the word "boob" can be interpreted
to have various meanings :-)
