Description of Paradise

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

At-Tauba
(9:72) Allah has promised the believing men and believing women gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they abide eternally, and pleasant dwellings in gardens of perpetual residence; but approval from Allah is greater. It is that which is the great attainment.

(9:88) But the Messenger and those who believed with him fought with their wealth and their lives. Those will have [all that is] good, and it is those who are the successful.
(9:89) Allah has prepared for them gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide eternally. That is the great attainment.


Az-Zukhruf
(43:68) [To whom Allah will say], “O My servants, no fear will there be concerning you this Day, nor will you grieve,
(43:69) [You] who believed in Our verses and were Muslims.
(43:70) Enter Paradise, you and your kinds, delighted.”
(43:71) Circulated among them will be plates and vessels of gold. And therein is whatever the souls desire and [what] delights the eyes, and you will abide therein eternally.
(43:72) And that is Paradise which you are made to inherit for what you used to do.
(43:73) For you therein is much fruit from which you will eat.


Yunus
(10:9) Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds – their Lord will guide them because of their faith. Beneath them rivers will flow in the Gardens of Pleasure.
(10:10) Their call therein will be, “Exalted are You, O Allah,” and their greeting therein will be, “Peace.” And the last of their call will be, “Praise to Allah, Lord of the worlds!”


Ar-Ra’d
(13:23) Gardens of perpetual residence; they will enter them with whoever were righteous among their fathers, their spouses and their descendants. And the angels will enter upon them from every gate, [saying],
(13:24) “Peace be upon you for what you patiently endured. And excellent is the final home.”

(13:35) The example of Paradise, which the righteous have been promised, is [that] beneath it rivers flow. Its fruit is lasting, and its shade. That is the consequence for the righteous, and the consequence for the disbelievers is the Fire.


Al-Hijr
(15:45) Indeed, the righteous will be within gardens and springs.
(15:46) [Having been told], “Enter it in peace, safe [and secure].”
(15:47) And We will remove whatever is in their breasts of resentment, [so they will be] brothers, on thrones facing each other.
(15:48) No fatigue will touch them therein, nor from it will they [ever] be removed.
(15:49) Inform My servants that it is I, who am the Forgiving, the Merciful.
(15:50) And that it is My punishment which is the painful punishment.


Al-Kahf
(18:30) Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds – indeed, We will not allow to be lost the reward of any who did well in deeds.
(18:31) Those will have gardens of perpetual residence; beneath them rivers will flow. They will be adorned therein with bracelets of gold and will wear green garments of fine silk and brocade, reclining therein on adorned couches. Excellent is the reward, and good is the resting place.


Al-Hajj
(22:14) Indeed, Allah will admit those who believe and do righteous deeds to gardens beneath which rivers flow. Indeed, Allah does what He intends.

(22:23) Indeed, Allah will admit those who believe and do righteous deeds to gardens beneath which rivers flow. They will be adorned therein with bracelets of gold and pearl, and their garments therein will be silk.
(22:24) And they had been guided [in worldly life] to good speech, and they were guided to the path of the Praiseworthy.


Al-Ahzab
(33:44) Their greeting the Day they meet Him will be, “Peace.” And He has prepared for them a noble reward.


Fatir
(35:33) [For them are] gardens of perpetual residence which they will enter. They will be adorned therein with bracelets of gold and pearls, and their garments therein will be silk.
(35:34) And they will say, “Praise to Allah, who has removed from us [all] sorrow. Indeed, our Lord is Forgiving and Appreciative –
(35:35) He who has settled us in the home of duration out of His bounty. There touches us not in it any fatigue, and there touches us not in it weariness [of mind].”


Ya-Sin
(36:55) Indeed the companions of Paradise, that Day, will be amused in [joyful] occupation –
(36:56) They and their spouses – in shade, reclining on adorned couches.
(36:57) For them therein is fruit, and for them is whatever they request [or wish]
(36:58) [And] “Peace,” a word from a Merciful Lord.


As-Saffat
(37:41) Those will have a provision determined –
(37:42) Fruits; and they will be honored
(37:43) In gardens of pleasure
(37:44) On thrones facing one another.
(37:45) There will be circulated among them a cup [of wine] from a flowing spring,
(37:46) White and delicious to the drinkers;
(37:47) No bad effect is there in it, nor from it will they be intoxicated.
(37:48) And with them will be women limiting [their] glances, with large, [beautiful] eyes,
(37:49) As if they were [delicate] eggs, well-protected.
(37:50) And they will approach one another, inquiring of each other.
(37:51) A speaker among them will say, “Indeed, I had a companion [on earth]
(37:52) Who would say, ‘Are you indeed of those who believe
(37:53) That when we have died and become dust and bones, we will indeed be recompensed?'”
(37:54) He will say, “Would you [care to] look?”
(37:55) And he will look and see him in the midst of the Hellfire.
(37:56) He will say, “By Allah, you almost ruined me.
(37:57) If not for the favor of my Lord, I would have been of those brought in [to Hell].
(37:58) Then, are we not to die
(37:59) Except for our first death, and we will not be punished?”
(37:60) Indeed, this is the great attainment.
(37:61) For the like of this let the workers [on earth] work.
(37:62) Is Paradise a better accommodation or the tree of zaqqum?


Suad
(38:50) Gardens of perpetual residence, whose doors will be opened to them.
(38:51) Reclining within them, they will call therein for abundant fruit and drink.
(38:52) And with them will be companions limiting [their] glances and of equal age.
(38:53) This is what you, [the righteous], are promised for the Day of Account.
(38:54) Indeed, this is Our provision; for it there is no depletion.


Az-Zumar
(39:20) But those who have feared their Lord – for them are chambers, above them chambers built high, beneath which rivers flow. [This is] the promise of Allah. Allah does not fail in [His] promise.


Ad-Dukhan
(44:51) Indeed, the righteous will be in a secure place;
(44:52) Within gardens and springs,
(44:53) Wearing [garments of] fine silk and brocade, facing each other.
(44:54) Thus. And We will marry them to fair companion with large, [beautiful] eyes.
(44:55) They will call therein for every [kind of] fruit – safe and secure.
(44:56) They will not taste death therein except the first death, and He will have protected them from the punishment of Hellfire
(44:57) As bounty from your Lord. That is what is the great attainment.


Muhammad
(47:12) Indeed, Allah will admit those who have believed and done righteous deeds to gardens beneath which rivers flow, but those who disbelieve enjoy themselves and eat as grazing livestock eat, and the Fire will be a residence for them.
(47:13) And how many a city was stronger than your city which drove you out? We destroyed them; and there was no helper for them.
(47:14) So is he who is on clear evidence from his Lord like him to whom the evil of his work has been made attractive and they follow their [own] desires?
(47:15) Is the description of Paradise, which the righteous are promised, wherein are rivers of water unaltered, rivers of milk the taste of which never changes, rivers of wine delicious to those who drink, and rivers of purified honey, in which they will have from all [kinds of] fruits and forgiveness from their Lord, like [that of] those who abide eternally in the Fire and are given to drink scalding water that will sever their intestines?


Az-Zariyat
(51:22) And in the heaven is your provision and whatever you are promised.


At-Tur
(52:17) Indeed, the righteous will be in gardens and pleasure,
(52:18) Enjoying what their Lord has given them, and their Lord protected them from the punishment of Hellfire.
(52:19) [They will be told], “Eat and drink in satisfaction for what you used to do.”
(52:20) They will be reclining on thrones lined up, and We will marry them to fair one with large, [beautiful] eyes.
(52:21) And those who believed and whose descendants followed them in faith – We will join with them their descendants, and We will not deprive them of anything of their deeds. Every person, for what he earned, is retained.
(52:22) And We will provide them with fruit and meat from whatever they desire.
(52:23) They will exchange with one another a cup [of wine] wherein [results] no ill speech or commission of sin.
(52:24) There will circulate among them [servant] boys [especially] for them, as if they were pearls well-protected.
(52:25) And they will approach one another, inquiring of each other.
(52:26) They will say, “Indeed, we were previously among our people fearful [of displeasing Allah].
(52:27) So Allah conferred favor upon us and protected us from the punishment of the Scorching Fire.
(52:28) Indeed, we used to supplicate Him before. Indeed, it is He who is the Beneficent, the Merciful.”


Al-Qamar
(54:54) Indeed, the righteous will be among gardens and rivers,
(54:55) In a seat of honor near a Sovereign, Perfect in Ability.


Ar-Rahman
(55:46) But for he who has feared the position of his Lord are two gardens

(55:48) Having [spreading] branches.

(55:50) In both of them are two springs, flowing.

(55:52) In both of them are of every fruit, two kinds.

(55:54) [They are] reclining on beds whose linings are of silk brocade, and the fruit of the two gardens is hanging low.

(55:56) In them are companions limiting [their] glances, untouched before them by man or jinni –

(55:58) As if they were rubies and coral.

(55:62) And below them both [in excellence] are two [other] gardens –

(55:64) Dark green [in color].

(55:66) In both of them are two springs, spouting.

(55:68) In both of them are fruit and palm trees and pomegranates.

(55:70) In them are good and beautiful ones –

(55:72) Fair ones reserved in pavilions –

(55:74) Untouched before them by man or jinni –

(55:76) Reclining on green cushions and beautiful fine carpets.


Ad-Dahr
(76:5) Indeed, the righteous will drink from a cup [of wine] whose mixture is of Kafur,
(76:6) A spring of which the [righteous] servants of Allah will drink; they will make it gush forth in force [and abundance].
(76:7) They [are those who] fulfill [their] vows and fear a Day whose evil will be widespread.
(76:8) And they give food in spite of love for it to the needy, the orphan, and the captive,
(76:9) [Saying], “We feed you only for the countenance of Allah . We wish not from you reward or gratitude.
(76:10) Indeed, We fear from our Lord a Day austere and distressful.”
(76:11) So Allah will protect them from the evil of that Day and give them radiance and happiness
(76:12) And will reward them for what they patiently endured [with] a garden [in Paradise] and silk [garments].
(76:13) [They will be] reclining therein on adorned couches. They will not see therein any [burning] sun or [freezing] cold.
(76:14) And near above them are its shades, and its [fruit] to be picked will be lowered in compliance.
(76:15) And there will be circulated among them vessels of silver and cups having been [created] clear [as glass],
(76:16) Clear glasses [made] from silver of which they have determined the measure.
(76:17) And they will be given to drink a cup [of wine] whose mixture is of ginger
(76:18) [From] a fountain within Paradise named Salsabeel.
(76:19) There will circulate among them young boys made eternal. When you see them, you would think them [as beautiful as] scattered pearls.
(76:20) And when you look there [in Paradise], you will see pleasure and great dominion.
(76:21) Upon the inhabitants will be green garments of fine silk and brocade. And they will be adorned with bracelets of silver, and their Lord will give them a purifying drink.
(76:22) [And it will be said], “Indeed, this is for you a reward, and your effort has been appreciated.”
