41:18 - But We delivered those who believed and practiced righteousness.<br />

43:35 - And also adornments of gold. But all this were nothing but conveniences of the present life:<br />

the Hereafter in the sight of thy Lord is for the Righteous. 4637<br />

4637 Adornments of gold: the keyword to this Sura. All false glitter and adornments of this world are as naught. They more<br />

often hinder than help. (43.35)<br />

45:30 - Then as to those who believed and did righteous deeds their Lord will admit them to His<br />

Mercy: that will be the Achievement for all to see. 4768<br />

4768 The attainment and satisfaction of all hopes and desires; the reaching of the final goal of Bliss. Cf. xliv. 57, and n. 47<br />

33. (45.30)<br />

47:2 - But those who believe and work deeds of righteousness and believe in the (Revelation) sent<br />

down to Muhammad-for it is the Truth from their Lord He will remove from them their ills and<br />

improve their condition. 4818<br />

4818 Bal means state or condition, whether external, or of the heart and mind. Both meanings apply here. The more the<br />

wicked rage, the better will be the position of the righteous, and Allah will make it easier and easier for the righteous to<br />

love and follow the Truth. (47.2)<br />

48:29 - Allah has promised those among them who believe and do righteous deeds Forgiveness<br />

and a great Reward. 491349144915491649174918<br />

64:9 - The Day that He assembles you (all) for a day of Assembly that will be a day of mutual loss<br />

and gain (among you). And those who believe in Allah and work righteousness He will<br />

remove from them their ills and He will admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow to<br />

dwell therein forever: that will be the Supreme Achievement. 548954905491<br />

5489 The Day of Judgment will truly be "a Day of Mutual Loss and Gain", as the title of this Sura indicates. Men who<br />

thought they were laying up riches will find themselves paupers in the Kingdom of Heaven. Men who thought they<br />

were acquiring good by wrong-doing will find their efforts were wasted; xviii. 104. On the other hand the meek and<br />

lowly of this life will acquire great dignity and honour in the next; the despised ones doing good here will be the<br />

accepted ones there; the persecuted righteous will be in eternal happiness. The two classes will as it were change<br />

their relative positions. (64.9)<br />

76:5 - As to the Righteous they shall drink of a Cup (of Wine) mixed with Kafur 5835<br />

5835 Kafur is literally Comphor. It is a fountain in the Realms of Bliss. It is a seasoning added to the Cup of pure, beatific<br />

Wine, which causes no intoxication (lvi. 18- 19), but stands for all that is wholesome, agreeable, and refreshing.<br />

Camphor is cool and refreshing, and is given as a soothing tonic in Eastern medicine. In minute doses its odour and<br />

flavour are also agreeable. (76.5)<br />

77:41 - As to the Righteous they shall be amidst (cool) shades and springs (of water). 5883<br />

5883 This is in contrast to the triple shade of smoke and sin for the sinners, which neither gives them coolness nor protects<br />

them from the Blazing Fire. The Shade, i.e. Covering, of Allah's Good Pleasure, will be the greatest Boon of all, and<br />

the Spring of Allah's Love will be inexhaustible. (77.41)<br />

78:31 - Verily for the righteous there will be a fulfillment of (the Heart's) desires; 5904<br />

5904 This is true Salvation. It is not only safety and felicity, but the attainment of the final Goal, the supreme Achievement,<br />

the Fulfilment of the highest in human nature, the satisfaction of the true and pure desires of the heart,-seeing the<br />

"Face of Allah". See n. 4733 to xliv. 57. (78.31)<br />

82:13 - As for the Righteous they will be in Bliss;<br />

83:22 - Truly the Righteous will be in Bliss:<br />

95:6 - Except such as believe and do righteous deeds: for they shall have a reward unfailing.<br />

89:27 - (To the righteous soul will be said:) "O (thou) soul in (complete) rest and satisfaction! 6127<br />

6127 The righteous enter into their inheritance and receive their welcome with a title that suggests freedom from all pain,<br />

sorrow, doubt, struggle, disappointment, passion, and even further desire; at rest, in peace; in a state of complete<br />

satisfaction. In Muslim theology, this stage of the soul is the final stage of bliss. The unregenerate human soul, that<br />

seeks its satisfaction in the lower earthly desires, is the Ammara (xii. 53). The self-reproaching soul that feels<br />

conscious of sin and resists it is the Lawwama (lxxv. 2, and n. 5810). (89.27)<br />

89:28 - "Come back thou to thy Lord well pleased (thyself) and well-pleasing unto Him! 6128<br />
