Surely we fear from our Lord a stern, distressful day.
Therefore Allah win guard them from the evil of that day and cause them to meet with ease and happiness;
And reward them, because they were patient, with garden and silk,
Reclining therein on raised couches, they shall find therein neither (the severe heat of) the sun nor intense cold.
And close down upon them (shall be) its shadows, and its fruits shall be made near (to them), being easy to reach.
And there shall be made to go round about them vessels of silver and goblets which are of glass,
(Transparent as) glass, made of silver; they have measured them according to a measure.
Quran
And the twelve gates were twelve pearls: every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass
