The Holy Quran 9:72 — Surah At-Tawbah

Arabic text

وَعَدَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَـٰتِ جَنَّـٰتٍ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَـٰرُ خَـٰلِدِينَ فِيهَا وَمَسَـٰكِنَ طَيِّبَةً فِى جَنَّـٰتِ عَدْنٍ ۚ وَرِضْوَٰنٌ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ أَكْبَرُ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ

Translation

Allaah promises the Mu'mineen men and the Mu'mineen women Jannaat beneath which rivers flow, where they shall live forever. And (in addition to this, Allaah also promises them) magnificent mansions in eternal Jannaat. The pleasure (good) of Allaah is greatest (greater than any other bounty)! This is the ultimate success.

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The good pleasure of Allah is greater than all blessings: that is, greater than all the blessings of this world and the Hereafter is the good pleasure and approval of Almighty Allah. Paradise, too, is sought precisely because it is the abode of divine good pleasure.
