WATER IN THE QUR'AN

T hen your hearts became hardened after that, so they were
like rocks or even harder still. There are some rocks from
which rivers gush out, and others which split open and
water pours out, and others which crash down from fear of Allah.
Allah is not unaware of what you do. (Surat al-Baqara, 74)

WATER IN PARADISE
Their reward is with their Lord: Gardens of Eden with rivers flowing
under them, remaining in them timelessly, for ever and ever. Allah is
pleased with them and they are pleased with Him. That is for those
who fear their Lord. (Surat al-Bayyina, 8)
But those who believe and do right actions will have Gardens with
rivers flowing under them. That is the Great Victory. (Surat al-Buruj, 11)
What is the Garden promised to those who guard against evil like? It
has rivers flowing under it and its foodstuffs and cool shade never fail.
That is the final fate of those who guard against evil. But the final fate
of the disbelievers is the Fire. (Surat ar-Ra'd, 35)
As for those who believe and do right actions, We will lodge them in
lofty chambers in the Garden, with rivers flowing under them, re-
maining in them timelessly, for ever. How excellent is the reward of
those who act. (Surat al-'Ankabut, 58)
But as for those who believe and do right actions, We will admit
them into Gardens with rivers flowing under them, remaining in them
timelessly, for ever and ever. In them they will have spouses of perfect
purity and We will admit them into cool, refreshing shade. (Surat an-
Nisa', 57)
For those who fear the Station of their Lord there are two Gardens.
So which of your Lord's blessings do you both then deny? Shaded by
spreading branches. So which of your Lord's blessings do you both
then deny? In them are two clear flowing springs. (Surat ar-Rahman,
46-50)
