📖 Commentary of Verse 18 (Surah Al-Waqi’ah)

"Carrying goblets and showers and cups filled with flowing drinks [20]."

[20] This means the dwellers of Paradise will not need to move or exert effort for anything—the attendant boys will handle all tasks.
These youths will serve food and drink, ensuring complete ease and comfort for the people of Paradise.

➡️ This also implies that there will be no requirement of privacy from these boys, as they will need access inside and outside to perform their duties.
In this world too, young children are not subject to the same privacy rules, further supporting this concept.
