Re: Some Qualities of People of Paradise
you need to look at couple of previous Ayahs to relate these two ayahs to the people of paradise.
Ayah 14: Beautified for people is the love of that which they desire - of women and sons, heaped-up sums of gold and silver, fine branded horses, and cattle and tilled land. That is the enjoyment of worldly life, but Allah has with Him the best return.
Ayah 15: Say, Shall I inform you of [something] better than that? For those who fear Allah will be gardens in the presence of their Lord beneath which rivers flow, wherein they abide eternally, and purified spouses and approval from Allah . And Allah is Seeing of [His] servants -
Ayah 16: Those who say, Our Lord, indeed we have believed, so forgive us our sins and protect us from the punishment of the Fire,
Ayah 17: The patient, the true, the obedient, those who spend [in the way of Allah ], and those who seek forgiveness before dawn.
