| Asad | [And can] the parable of the paradise which the God-conscious are promised [My rendering of this verse is based in its entirety on the grammatical construction given to it by Zamakhshari and supported by Razi. In this construction, the parabolic description of paradise - beginning with the phrase "wherein there are rivers, etc., and ending with the words "and forgiveness from their Sustainer" - is a parenthetic passage (jumlah mutaridah). As for the term "parable" (mathal) itself, it is undoubtedly meant to impress upon those who read or listen to the Quran that its descriptions of life in the hereafter are purely allegorical: see in this connection Zamakhshari's explicit remarks cited in note on 13:35.] - [a paradise] wherein there are rivers of water which time does not corrupt, and rivers of milk the taste whereof never alters, and rivers of wine delightful to those who drink it, [Cf. 37:45-47, especially verse 47: "no headiness will there be in it, and they will not get drunk thereon".] and rivers of honey of all impurity cleansed, and the enjoyment [Lit., "and wherein they [i.e., the God-conscious] will have, etc.] of all the fruits [of their good deeds] and of forgiveness from their Sustainer -: can this [parable of paradise] be likened unto [the parable of the recompense of] [This interpolation reproduces literally Zamakhshari's explanation of the above ellipticism.] such as are to abide in the fire and be given waters of burning despair [Lit., "exceedingly hot [or "boiling"] water". For an explanation of this metaphor, see note on 6:70.] to drink, so that it will tear their bowels asunder? |
