Explanatory Note

These will be brought nearest to God, in gardens of bliss. A good many of them are from earlier times and a few from later generations. On gold-encrusted couches they will recline facing each other. Immortal youths shall wait upon them with goblets, ewers, and cups filled with water from unsullied springs. From it they will not be dispersed, nor will they be in short supply And with fruit of any kind they may choose, and with the meat of any fowl they may desire. There will be for them companions with large beautiful eyes like hidden pearls: a reward for what they used to do. There they will hear no idle talk, no sinful speech, only the saying, Peace! Peace. (Verses 11-26)
 
The surah begins this detailed account by mentioning the greatest aspect of their elevated position, the bliss of being close to their Lord: "These will be brought nearest to God, in gardens of bliss." (Verses 11-12) The gardens of bliss, with all that they contain, is nothing compared to that topmost favour of being nearest to God.
