Complexion of the people of Jannah

Q: Umm Ayman (Radiyallahu Anha), a black widow who had children, married someone much younger than her, Zaid (Radiyallahu Anhu), who was an Arab, and it was the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) who helped arrange this. The only thing he said to his companions was, "Do you wish to marry a woman of Jannah?" And their hands went up. When the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said it was Umm Ayman (Radiyallahu Anha). Zaid was the only one who kept his hand up.

Based on this hadith, does this mean there will be dark skinned women in Jannah?

A: The nature of Jannat is totally different. Over there everybody will be beautiful and will enjoy the complexion of his choice.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
