Asbat, from al-Suddi: Regarding His saying: "And We will remove whatever is in their breasts of resentment, rivers flowing beneath them:" He said: When the people of Paradise hasten to Paradise and reach it, they will find at its gate a tree with two springs at the base of its trunk. They will drink from one of them, which will remove whatever is in their breasts of resentment, and it is the purifying drink. They will bathe from the other, and the radiance of bliss will spread over them, and they will never be disheveled or weary after that, ever.
His saying, the Almighty: "And they will say, 'Praise to God who has guided us to this.'"

أَسْبَاطٌ، عَنِ السُّدِّيِّ: قَوْلُهُ: وَنَزَعْنَا مَا فِي صُدُورِهِمْ مِنْ غِلٍّ تَجْرِي مِنْ تَحْتِهِمُ الأَنْهَارُ:
قَالَ: إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ إِذَا سَبَقُوا إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ فَبَلَغُوا، وَجَدُوا عِنْدَ بَابِهَا شَجَرَةً فِي أَصْلِ سَاقِهَا عَيْنَانِ، فَشَرِبُوا مِنْ إِحْدَاهِمَا، فَيَنْزِعُ مَا فِي صُدُورِهِمْ مِنْ غِلٍّ، فَهُوَ الشَّرَابُ الطَّهُورُ، وَاغْتَسَلُوا مِنَ الأُخْرَى، فَجَرَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ نَضْرَةُ النَّعِيمِ، فَلَنْ يُشْعَثُوا وَلَنْ يُشْحَبُوا بَعْدَهَا أَبَدًا.
قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى: وَقَالُوا الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي هَدَانَا لهذا
