Paradise and the Afterlife

تِلْكَ ٱلْجَنَّةُ ٱلَّتِى نُورِثُ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا مَن كَانَ تَقِيًّا

That is Paradise, which We give as inheritance to those of Our servants who were fearing of Allāh.

وَأُزْلِفَتِ ٱلْجَنَّةُ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ

And Paradise will be brought near [that Day] to the righteous.

عِندَهَا جَنَّةُ ٱلْمَأْوَىٰٓ

Near it is the Garden of Refuge [i.e., Paradise] -

ثُلَّةٌ مِّنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ

A [large] company of the former peoples

فَسَلَـٰمٌ لَّكَ مِنْ أَصْحَـٰبِ ٱلْيَمِينِ

Then [the angels will say], "Peace for you; [you are] from the companions of the right."

وَإِذَا رَأَيْتَ ثَمَّ رَأَيْتَ نَعِيمًا وَمُلْكًا كَبِيرًا

And when you look there [in Paradise], you will see pleasure and great dominion.

ٱنطَلِقُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ ظِلٍّ ذِى ثَلَـٰثِ شُعَبٍ

Proceed to a shadow [of smoke] having three columns.
