Sura 9
Aya 72
72
وَعَدَ اللَّهُ المُؤمِنينَ وَالمُؤمِناتِ جَنّاتٍ تَجري مِن تَحتِهَا الأَنهارُ خالِدينَ فيها وَمَساكِنَ طَيِّبَةً في جَنّاتِ عَدنٍ ۚ وَرِضوانٌ مِنَ اللَّهِ أَكبَرُ ۚ ذٰلِكَ هُوَ الفَوزُ العَظيمُ

Muhammad Asad

God has promised the believers, both men and women, gardens through which running waters flow, therein to abide, and goodly dwellings in gardens of perpetual bliss:1 but God's goodly acceptance is the greatest [bliss of all] - for this, this is the triumph supreme!
  • For an explanation of this rendering of 'adn (akin to the Hebrew 'eden, "delight" or "bliss"), see note 45 on 38:50, where this expression occurs for the first time in the chronological order of Qur'anic revelation.
