THERE ARE RIVERS FLOWING
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. (Qur'an, 4:57)
He will forgive you your wrong actions and admit you into
Gardens with rivers flowing under them, and fine dwellings in
the Gardens of Eden.That is the Great Victory. (Qur'an, 61:12)
An image of the Garden which is promised to those who guard
against evil: in it there are rivers of water which will never spoil
and rivers of milk whose taste will never change and rivers of
wine, delightful to all who drink it, and rivers of honey of
undiluted purity;in it they will have fruit of every kind and
forgiveness from their Lord. Is that like those who will be in the
Fire timelessly, for ever, with boiling water to drink which lacerates
their bowels? (Qur'an, 47:15)
Blessed be He Who, if He wishes, will grant you better than that:
Gardens with rivers flowing under them; and He will grant you
Palaces. (Qur'an, 25:10)
