ONE AYAT A DAY
اُولٰۤىِٕكَ لَهُمْ جَنّٰتُ عَدْنٍ تَجْرِيْ مِنْ تَحْتِهِمُ الْاَنْهٰرُ يُحَلَّوْنَ فِيْهَا مِنْ اَسَاوِرَ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ وَّيَلْبَسُوْنَ ثِيَابًا خُضْرًا مِّنْ سُنْدُسٍ وَّاِسْتَبْرَقٍ مُّتَّكِـِٕيْنَ فِيْهَا عَلَى الْاَرَاۤىِٕكِۗ نِعْمَ الثَّوَابُۗ وَحَسُنَتْ مُرْتَفَقًا ࣖ
Ulā'ika lahum jannātu ‘adnin tajrī min taḥtihimul-anhāru yuḥallauna fīhā min asāwira min żahabiw wa yalbasūna ṡiyāban khuḍram min sundusiw wa istabraqim muttaki'īna fīhā ‘alal-arā'ik(i), ni‘maṡ-ṡawāb(u), wa ḥasunat murtafaqā(n).
Those will have gardens of perpetual residence; beneath them rivers will flow. They will be adorned therein with bracelets of gold and will wear green garments of fine silk and brocade, reclining therein on adorned couches. Excellent is the reward, and good is the resting place.

Sundus refers to a fine garment, like a shirt and the like, and Istabraq is thick and shiny velvet.مُّتَّكِئِينَ فِيهَا عَلَى الاٌّرَائِكِ(They will be Muttaki'in therein on Ara'ik.) The word Muttaki'in implies lying down, or it was said that it means sitting with one's legs crossed, which is closer to the meaning here. In a Sahih Hadith, the Prophet said:«أَمَّا أَنَا فَلَا آكُلُ مُتَّكِئًا»(As for me, I do not eat sitting with legs cros…
