Quran 3:198 — Aal-i-Imraan, verse 198
M. A. S. Abdel Haleem · selected translation
But those who were mindful of their Lord will have Gardens graced with flowing streams where they will stay as a reward from God. What God has is best for those who are truly good.
لَـٰكِنِ الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْا رَبَّهُمْ لَهُمْ جَنَّاتٌ تَجْرِي مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْأَنْهَارُ خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا نُزُلًا مِنْ عِنْدِ اللَّهِ ۗ وَمَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ خَيْرٌ لِلْأَبْرَارِ
lākini alladhīna ittaqaw rabbahum lahum jannātun tajrī min taḥtihā l-anhāru khālidīna fīhā nuzulan min ʿindi l-lahi wamā ʿinda l-lahi khayrun lil'abrāri
