Aya 50
50
فيهِما عَينانِ تَجرِيانِ

Muhammad Asad

In [each of] these two [gardens] two springs will flow.1
  • The "two springs" of paradise call to mind the "two seas" spoken of in 18:60-61, which, according to Baydawi, symbolize the two sources or streams of knowledge accessible to man: the one obtained through the observation and intellectual analysis of external phenomena ('ilm az-zahir), and the other through inward, mystic insight ('ilm al-batin).
