Gardens of Eden: Gardens of Eden are Quranic descriptions of gardens promised to the righteous in paradise. This recurring image gives Jannah its best-known landscape.
Quran: The Quran is Islam’s central scripture, understood by Muslims as revelation from God to Muhammad. Its descriptions provide the foundational scriptural account of Jannah.
Beatific vision: The beatific vision is the direct vision of God understood in Christian theology as the fulfillment of the blessed. It contrasts with Islamic discussions that place emphasis on Jannah’s described rewards and debates about seeing God.
Jahannam: Jahannam is the place of punishment in Islamic accounts of the afterlife. Islamic texts often set its punishment against Jannah’s reward.
Qiyamah: Qiyamah is the resurrection and final judgment in Islamic eschatology. Jannah follows the reckoning associated with the Day of Resurrection.
Rivers in Islamic paradise: Rivers in Islamic paradise are Quranic images of flowing abundance, including water, milk, wine, and honey. Their varied descriptions make the garden imagery tangible and abundant.
