ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ إِنْشَاءَ اللَّهِ الْخَلْقَ الَّذِي وَصَفْنَا، إِنَّمَا يُنْشِئُهُمْ لِيُسْكِنَهُمْ مَوَاضِعَ مَنِ الْجَنَّةِ بَقِيَتْ فَضْلًا عَنْ أَوْلَادِ آدَمَ

There would be left some space in Paradise as Allah would like that to be left. Then Allah would create another creation as He would like. (Using translation from Muslim 2848d)   

ابن حبّان:٧٤٤٨أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ سَلَّامٍ الْجُمَحِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «يَبْقَى مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يَبْقَى فَيُنْشِئُ اللَّهُ لَهَا خَلْقًا مَا يَشَاءُ»
