55:56,
37:48 and
38:52- As I have translated Qasirat by the phrase "restraining (their glances)", I think I am right in translating the passive Maqsurat by "restrained (as to their glances)". This is the only place in the Qur'an where the passive form occurs. 5219 The Pavilions seem to add dignity to their status. In the other Gardens (
55:58), the description "like rubies and corals" is perhaps an indication of higher dignity.
