Allah says: كِلْتَا الْجَنَّتَيْنِ آتَتْ أُكُلَهَا (Each of those two gardens brought forth its produce,) meaning, produced its fruits, وَلَمْ تَظْلِمِ مِّنْهُ شَيْئًا (and failed not in the least therein,) meaning, nothing at all was diminishing. وَفَجَّرْنَا خِلَلَهُمَا نَهَراً (and We caused a river to gush forth in the midst of both.) means, rivers were flowing through them here and there. وَكَانَ لَهُ ثَمَرٌ (And he had Thamar,) It was said that what was meant here was wealth, and it was said that what was meant were fruits, which is the more apparent meaning here.…
