JANNAH:
The Garden from
the Qur’an and Hadith

(Surah Fatir: 33) These jewels that are mentioned in the Qur’an and in
the hadith in relation to the Garden have been expressions throughout
human history of wealth and splendour. Everyone appreciates these

adornments of diamonds, pearls, rubies, gold and silver, and takes plea-
sure in seeing things decorated with them.
There are some hadith, such as those below that mention pearls as
a blessing of the Garden:
Those who dwell in the Garden of Eternity will wear crowns en-
crusted with pearls, the radiance of the smallest of which will illu-
minate the space separating the east from the west! (At-Tirmidhi)

‘Abd-Allah ibn ‘Amr said: “I heard the Messenger of Allah saying
that the [Yemeni] Corner and the Station [of Ibrahim] are two of the
precious stones of the Garden, whose light has been extinguished by
Allah. If He had not extinguished their light, it would illuminate
everything between the east and the west.” (At-Tirmidhi, 804)
