Readings from the Quran [20]: The Recompense of the Righteous

When they [people of the book] listen to that [Quran] which was revealed to the Apostle,
you see their eyes fill with tears as they recognize its truth.
They say: "Lord, we believe. Count us among the witnesses.
Why should we not believe in God and in the truth that has come down to us?
Why should we not hope our Lord will admit us among the righteous?'

And for their words God has rewarded them with gardens
watered by running streams, where they shall dwell for ever.
Such is the recompense of the righteous.

Quran 5: 83-85
