cold, the shading branches of trees will come down low over them, and their clusters of fruit, will hang down where they are the easiest to reach. Vessels of silver and goblets of pure crystal will be passed round among them and gleaming silver goblets which have been filled to the exact measure, and they will be given a cup to drink flavoured with ginger, from a flowing spring called Salsabil. They will be attended by youths who will not age— when you see them you will think them to be like sprinkled pearls—wherever you look, you will see bliss and a great kingdom: they will wear green garments of fine silk and rich brocade. They will be adorned with silver bracelets. And their Lord will give them a pure drink. This is your reward. Your endeavour is fully acknowledged.
