<h2 class="title">The Reward of those Who believe and do Righteous Deeds</h2><p>When Allah mentions the state of those who are doomed, He follows that by mentioning the blessed who believed in Allah and believed what His Messengers brought, those who did the righteous deeds that they commanded them to do.

The Reward of those Who believe and do Righteous DeedsWhen Allah mentions the state of those who are doomed, He follows that by mentioning the blessed who believed in Allah and believed what His Messengers brought, those who did the righteous deeds that they commanded them to do. They will have Jannatu `Adn. `Adn means lasting.تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهِمُ الاٌّنْهَـرُ(wherein rivers flow beneath them,) means, from beneath its rooms and dwellings. Fir`awn said:وَهَـذِهِ الاٌّنْهَـرُ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِى(and these rivers flowing beneath me...) 43:51يُحَلَّوْنَ(they will be adorned) means, with jewelry.فِيهَا مِنْ أَسَاوِرَ مِن ذَهَبٍ(with bracelets of gold,) Allah says elsewhere:وَلُؤْلُؤاً وَلِبَاسُهُمْ فِيهَا حَرِيرٌ(and pearls and their garments therein will be of silk) 22:23. This is explained in more detail here, where Allah says:وَيَلْبَسُونَ ثِيَابًا خُضْرًا مِّن سُنْدُسٍ وَإِسْتَبْرَقٍ(and they will wear green garments of Sundus and Istabraq.)
