Word by word

وَعَدَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَـٰتِ جَنَّـٰتٍ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَـٰرُ خَـٰلِدِينَ فِيهَا وَمَسَـٰكِنَ طَيِّبَةً فِى جَنَّـٰتِ عَدْنٍ ۚ وَرِضْوَٰنٌ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ أَكْبَرُ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ

Allāh has promised the believing men and believing women gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they abide eternally, and pleasant dwellings in gardens of perpetual residence; but approval from Allāh is greater. It is that which is the great attainment.

وعد الله المؤمنين والمؤمنات بالله ورسوله جنات تجري من تحت قصورها وأشجارها الأنهار ماكثين فيها أبدًا، لا يزول عنهم نعيمها، ومساكن حسنة البناء طيبة القرار في جنات إقامة، ورضوان من الله أكبر وأعظم مما هم فيه من النعيم. ذلك الوعد بثواب الآخرة هو الفلاح العظيم.
