Every mention

• 2:25 · Al-Baqarahجَنَّـٰتٍۢ (will be) GardensAnd give good tidings to those who believe and do righteous deeds that they will have gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow. Whenever they are provided with a provision of fruit therefrom, they will say, "This is what we were provided with before." And it is given to them in likeness. And they will have therein purified spouses, and they will abide therein eternally.
• 2:35 · Al-Baqarahٱلْجَنَّةَ (in) ParadiseAnd We said, "O Adam, dwell, you and your wife, in Paradise and eat therefrom in [ease and] abundance from wherever you will. But do not approach this tree, lest you be among the wrongdoers."

• 2:111 · Al-Baqarahٱلْجَنَّةَ the ParadiseAnd they say, "None will enter Paradise except one who is a Jew or a Christian." That is [merely] their wishful thinking, Say, "Produce your proof, if you should be truthful."
• 2:214 · Al-Baqarahٱلْجَنَّةَ ParadiseOr do you think that you will enter Paradise while such [trial] has not yet come to you as came to those who passed on before you? They were touched by poverty and hardship and were shaken until [even their] messenger and those who believed with him said, "When is the help of Allah?" Unquestionably, the help of Allah is near.
• 2:221 · Al-Baqarahٱلْجَنَّةِ ParadiseAnd do not marry polytheistic women until they believe. And a believing slave woman is better than a polytheist, even though she might please you. And do not marry polytheistic men [to your women] until they believe. And a believing slave is better than a polytheist, even though he might please you. Those invite [you] to the Fire, but Allah invites to Paradise and to forgiveness, by His permission. And He makes clear His verses to the people that perhaps they may remember.
• 2:265 · Al-Baqarahجَنَّةٍۭ a gardenAnd the example of those who spend their wealth seeking means to the approval of Allah and assuring [reward for] themselves is like a garden on high ground which is hit by a downpour - so it yields its fruits in double. And [even] if it is not hit by a downpour, then a drizzle [is sufficient]. And Allah, of what you do, is Seeing.
• 2:266 · Al-Baqarahجَنَّةٌۭ a gardenWould one of you like to have a garden of palm trees and grapevines underneath which rivers flow in which he has from every fruit? But he is afflicted with old age and has weak offspring, and it is hit by a whirlwind containing fire and is burned. Thus does Allah make clear to you [His] verses that you might give thought.
• 3:15 · Ali 'Imranجَنَّـٰتٌۭ (are) GardensSay, "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 -
• 3:133 · Ali 'Imranوَجَنَّةٍ and a Garden And hasten to forgiveness from your Lord and a garden as wide as the heavens and earth, prepared for the righteous

• 3:142 · Ali 'Imranٱلْجَنَّةَ ParadiseOr do you think that you will enter Paradise while Allah has not yet made evident those of you who fight in His cause and made evident those who are steadfast?
• 3:185 · Ali 'Imranٱلْجَنَّةَ (to) ParadiseEvery soul will taste death, and you will only be given your [full] compensation on the Day of Resurrection. So he who is drawn away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise has attained [his desire]. And what is the life of this world except the enjoyment of delusion.
• 3:195 · Ali 'Imranجَنَّـٰتٍۢ (to) GardensAnd their Lord responded to them, "Never will I allow to be lost the work of [any] worker among you, whether male or female; you are of one another. So those who emigrated or were evicted from their homes or were harmed in My cause or fought or were killed - I will surely remove from them their misdeeds, and I will surely admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow as reward from Allah, and Allah has with Him the best reward."
• 3:198 · Ali 'Imranجَنَّـٰتٌۭ (will be) GardensBut those who feared their Lord will have gardens beneath which rivers flow, abiding eternally therein, as accommodation from Allah. And that which is with Allah is best for the righteous.
• 4:13 · An-Nisaجَنَّـٰتٍۢ (to) GardensThese are the limits [set by] Allah, and whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger will be admitted by Him to gardens [in Paradise] under which rivers flow, abiding eternally therein; and that is the great attainment.

• 4:122 · An-Nisaجَنَّـٰتٍۢ (in) GardensBut the ones who believe and do righteous deeds - We will admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide forever. [It is] the promise of Allah, [which is] truth, and who is more truthful than Allah in statement.

But whoever of you disbelieves after that has certainly strayed from the soundness of the way."

Indeed, he who associates others with Allah - Allah has forbidden him Paradise, and his refuge is the Fire. And there are not for the wrongdoers any helpers.
• 5:85 · Al-Ma'idahجَنَّـٰتٍۢ (with) GardensSo Allah rewarded them for what they said with gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow, wherein they abide eternally. And that is the reward of doers of good.

For them are gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide forever, Allah being pleased with them, and they with Him. That is the great attainment.
• 6:99 · Al-An'amوَجَنَّـٰتٍۢ And gardensAnd it is He who sends down rain from the sky, and We produce thereby the growth of all things. We produce from it greenery from which We produce grains arranged in layers. And from the palm trees - of its emerging fruit are clusters hanging low.

And when they tasted of the tree, their private parts became apparent to them, and they began to fasten together over themselves from the leaves of Paradise. And their Lord called to them, "Did I not forbid you from that tree and tell you that Satan is to you a clear enemy?"
• 7:27 · Al-A'rafٱلْجَنَّةِ ParadiseO children of Adam, let not Satan tempt you as he removed your parents from Paradise, stripping them of their clothing to show them their private parts. Indeed, he sees you, he and his tribe, from where you do not see them. Indeed, We have made the devils allies to those who do not believe.
• 7:40 · Al-A'rafٱلْجَنَّةَ ParadiseIndeed, those who deny Our verses and are arrogant toward them - the gates of Heaven will not be opened for them, nor will they enter Paradise until a camel enters into the eye of a needle. And thus do We recompense the criminals.

And they will be called, "This is Paradise, which you have been made to inherit for what you used to do."
• 7:44 · Al-A'rafٱلْجَنَّةِ (of) ParadiseAnd the companions of Paradise will call out to the companions of the Fire, "We have already found what our Lord promised us to be true.

That is the great attainment.
• 9:111 · At-Tawbahٱلْجَنَّةَ ۚ (is) ParadiseIndeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties [in exchange] for that they will have Paradise.
