Tradition has it that ''al-Kawthar'' (from a root meaning "abundance"), a Word That Occurs Only Once in the Qur'an, is the name of a river in Paradise . On Yaum Al-Qiyamah (the Day Of Judgement ) all of those who truly believed in Allah will be led to ''al-Kawthar'' where they will drink only once, and will never hunger or thirst again. The sura's text, in the Pickthall translation, is: In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful. # Lo! We have given thee Abundance; # So pray unto thy Lord, and sacrifice. # Lo! it is thy insulter (and not thou) who is without posterity. (The text in brackets is the translator's explanatory interpolation.) EXTERNAL LINKS |
