The Holy Quran 2:35 — Surah Al-Baqarah

Arabic text

وَقُلْنَا يَـٰٓـَٔادَمُ ٱسْكُنْ أَنتَ وَزَوْجُكَ ٱلْجَنَّةَ وَكُلَا مِنْهَا رَغَدًا حَيْثُ شِئْتُمَا وَلَا تَقْرَبَا هَـٰذِهِ ٱلشَّجَرَةَ فَتَكُونَا مِنَ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ

Translation

We said, "O Aadam! You and your wife (Hawwa) may live in Jannah and eat as much as (whatever) you desire and from wherever you desire. However, do not approach this tree, otherwise the two of you will become of the unjust ones (those who are disobedient)."

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani
