These are the companions of the right hand, and this is the Garden of Bounties and the Garden of Shelter, and in these two Gardens are fruits found in abundance like the leaves of the tree and the stars.
و على هذه الجنان الأربع حائط محيط بها، طوله مسيرة خمس مائة عام، لبنة من فضة، و لبنة من ذهب، و لبنة من در، و لبنة من ياقوت، و ملاطه المسك و الزعفران، و شرفه نور يتلألأ، يرى الرجل وجهه في الحائط، و في الحائط ثمانية أبواب، على كل باب مصراعان، عرضهما كحضر الفرس الجواد سنة And on these two Gardens are four walls surrounding it, the length of which is the travel of five hundred years, made of bricks of silver, and bricks of gold, and bricks of precious stones, and bricks of sapphire, with mortar of musk and saffron, with light radiating from it.
A man can see his face in the wall, and in these walls are eight entrances, on each entrance has two gates, taking the racing horse a year to reach it.’ [37] VERSES 42 – 46 يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ أَيَّانَ مُرْسَاهَا {42} They are asking you about the Hour, ‘When would it transpire?’ [79:42] فِيمَ أَنْتَ مِنْ ذِكْرَاهَا {43} Who are you, from mentioning it [79:43] إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ مُنْتَهَاهَا {44} To your Lord is its ending [79:44] إِنَّمَا أَنْتَ مُنْذِرُ مَنْ يَخْشَاهَا {45} But rather, you are a warner to one who fears it [79:45] كَأَنَّهُمْ يَوْمَ يَرَوْنَهَا لَمْ يَلْبَثُوا إِلَّا عَشِيَّةً أَوْ ضُحَاهَا {46} On the Day that they see it, it will be as if they did not remain (in the world) except an evening or its day [79:46] و قال علي بن إبراهيم: أما قوله تعالى: يَسْئَلُونَكَ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ أَيَّانَ مُرْساها فإن قريشا بعثوا العاص بن وائل السهمي و النضر بن حارث بن كلدة و عقبة بن أبي معيط إلى نجران ليتعلموا من علماء اليهود مسائل و يسألوا بها رسول الله (صلى الله عليه و آله).
