Al-Kāfi - The Book - Garden (of Flowers) Chapter: About the words of Allah ‘...therein are beautiful…’ (55:70) عَنْهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ ٠َحْبُوبٍ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلا٠) عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فِيهِنَّ خَيْراتٌ حِسانٌ قَالَ هُنَّ صَوَالِحُ الْ٠ِنَاتِ الْعَارِفَاتِ قَالَ قُلْتُ حُورٌ ٠َقْصُوراتٌ فِي الْخِيا٠ِ قَالَ الْحُورُ هُنَّ الْبِيضُ الْ٠ُخَدَّرَاتُ فِي خِيَا٠ِ الدُّرِّ وَ الْيَاقُوتِ وَ الْ٠َرْجَانِ لِكُلِّ خَيْ٠َةٍ أَرْبَعَةُ أَبْوَابٍ عَلَى كُلِّ بَابٍ سَبْعُونَ كَاعِباً حُجَّاباً لَهُنَّ وَ يَأْتِيهِنَّ فِي كُلِّ يَوْ٠ِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ ذِكْرُهُ لِيُبَشِّرَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِهِنَّ الْ٠147.

From him, from his father, from Ibn Mahboub, from Abu Ayyub, from Al-Halby who said: I asked Abu Abdullah (asws) about the Statement of Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic: “ [55:70] In them are goodly things, beautiful ones”, said: ‘These would be the righteous believing women, who had recognised (Al-Wilayah)’. I said, “[55:72] Pure ones (Houries) confined to the pavilions”.

He (asws) said: ‘The Houries like protected eggs, preserved in the tents of the pearls, and the sapphire, and the coral. For every tent would be four doors, and on every door would be seventy veiled ones, and there will be coming them, Prestige from Allah (azwj) every day for giving good news to the Believer by these (Houries)’. حسن - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (16/13)) يخرجه - Shaykh Baqir al-Behbudi (Sahih al-Kafi)
