Surah Sad ayat 50 Tafsir Quran 38:50

﴿جَنَّاتِ عَدْنٍ مُّفَتَّحَةً لَّهُمُ الْأَبْوَابُ﴾
[ ص: 50]

38:50 Gardens of perpetual residence, whose doors will be opened to them.

Gardens of Eden jannāti ‘Adnin is either a substitution for or an explicative supplement to husna ma’ābin ‘a fair return’ whose gates are flung open for them;

Widely open for them shall be the gates of the Gardens of Eden wherein they shall be heartily welcomed

The Final Return of the Blessed Allah tells us that His blessed, believing servants will have a good final return in the Hereafter, which means their ultimate destination.
Then He explains it further, as He says: جَنَّـتِ عَدْنٍ ( `Adn Gardens ) meaning, eternal gardens ( of Paradise ), مُّفَتَّحَةً لَّهُمُ الاٌّبْوَابُ ( whose doors will be opened for them. ) means, when they come to them ( these gardens ), their gates will open for them. مُّتَّكِئِينَ فِيهَا ( Therein they will recline; ) It was said that this means that they will sit cross-legged on chairs beneath canopies. يَدْعُونَ فِيهَا بِفَـكِهَةٍ كَثِيرَةٍ ( therein they will call for fruits in abundance ) means, whatever they ask for, they will find it, and it will be prepared just as they wanted it. وَشَرَابٌ ( and drinks; ) means, whatever kind of drink they want, the servants will bring it to them, بِأَكْوَابٍ وَأَبَارِيقَ وَكَأْسٍ مِّن مَّعِينٍ ( With cups, and jugs, and a glass of flowing wine. ) ( 56: 18 ). وَعِندَهُمْ قَـصِرَتُ الطَّرْفِ ( And beside them will be Qasirat-at-Tarf (chaste females )) means, they restrain their glances from anyone except their husbands, and do not turn to anyone else. أَتْرَابٌ ( (and ) of equal ages.) means, they will all be of the same age.
This is the understanding of Ibn `Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, Mujahid, Sa`id bin Jubayr, Muhammad bin Ka`b and As-Suddi. هَـذَا مَا تُوعَدُونَ لِيَوْمِ الْحِسَابِ ( This it is what you are promised for the Day of Reckoning! ) means, `this that We have mentioned of the features of Paradise is what He has prepared for His pious servants who will reach it after they have been resurrected from their graves and been saved from the Fire.' Then Allah tells us that Paradise will never come to an end or disappear or cease to be.
He says: إِنَّ هَـذَا لَرِزْقُنَا مَا لَهُ مِن نَّفَادٍ ( Verily, this is Our provision which will never finish. ) This is like the Ayat: مَا عِندَكُمْ يَنفَدُ وَمَا عِندَ اللَّهِ بَاقٍ ( Whatever is with you, will be exhausted, and whatever is with Allah will remain ) ( 16:96 ). عَطَآءً غَيْرَ مَجْذُوذٍ ( a gift without an end. ) ( 11:108 ) لَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍ ( for them is a reward that will never come to an end. ) ( 84:25 ). أُكُلُهَا دَآئِمٌ وِظِلُّهَا تِلْكَ عُقْبَى الَّذِينَ اتَّقَواْ وَّعُقْبَى الْكَـفِرِينَ النَّارُ ( its provision is eternal and so is its shade; this is the end of those who have Taqwa, and the end (final destination ) of the disbelievers is Fire.)( 13:35 ).
And there are many similar Ayat.

(38:50) ' everlasting Gardens with gates wide open for them *52

Gardens of perpetual residence, whose doors will meaning

*52) The words mufattahat-al-lahum-ul-abwab may have several meanings: ( 1 ) They will go about in the Gardens ( Paradise ) freely without any hesitation; ( 2 ) no effort will have to be made to open the gates of Paradise: they will open automatically as soon as they will have the desire to enter them; ( 3 ) the angels appointed for keeping Paradise will open the gates for them as soon as they see them.
This third meaning has been expressed more clearly at another place in the Qur'an, thus: " When they arrive there, and its gates shall already have been opened, its keepers will say: Peace be upon you: you have fared well: enter here to dwell for ever.
" ( Az-Zumar: 73 )
