إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُدْخِلُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ جَنَّاتٍ تَجْرِي مِن تَحْتِهَا الْأَنْهَارُ يُحَلَّوْنَ فِيهَا مِنْ أَسَاوِرَ مِن ذَهَبٍ وَلُؤْلُؤًا ۖ وَلِبَاسُهُمْ فِيهَا حَرِيرٌ
22:23 The Holy Prophet (pbuh) and his Companions were well aware that “gardens served with running streams” and “ornaments of bracelets of gold and pearls” and “raiment of silk” were references to the rich and fertile lands ruled by the kings of Persia and the Emperors of the Byzantium, and the lands of Mesopotamia and Syria. The Holy Prophet (pbuh) is reported to have said, “The Nile and the Euphrates are two of the rivers of Paradise” (Abû Muslim). This saying of the Holy Prophet (pbuh) explains this verse.
