(Ayah 107){ اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَ عَمِلُوا الصّٰلِحٰتِ …:} After mentioning the disbelievers, the hospitality of the believers in contrast to them is described. The meaning of "Firdaws" is that garden in which all kinds of trees, flowers, and plants of gardens are present. It is narrated from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: [ فَإِذَا سَأَلْتُمُ اللّٰهَ فَسْئَلُوْهُ الْفِرْدَوْسَ، فَإِنَّهُ أَوْسَطُ الْجَنَّةِ وَأَعْلَی الْجَنَّةِ، وَفَوْقَهُ عَرْشُ الرَّحْمٰنِ، وَمِنْهُ تَفَجَّرُ أَنْهَارُ الْجَنَّةِ ] "When you ask Allah, then ask Him for Firdaws, because it is the best and highest place in Paradise, and above it is the Throne of the Most Merciful, and from it the rivers of Paradise flow."
