Al-Hijr
IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE DISPENSER OF GRACE[15:47]
And [by then] We shall have removed whatever unworthy thoughts or feelings may have been [lingering] in their breasts, [and they shall rest] as brethren, facing one another [in love] upon thrones of happiness.

* v.47 : I.e., all being equal in dignity, and therefore free from envy. As Rāzī points out, the plural noun surur (sing. sarīr), which literally denotes “couches” or, occasionally, “thrones,” signifies also “seats [or “thrones”] of eminence” or “of happiness (surūr),” from which latter word the noun sarīr and its plural surur may be derived. The sublime quality of these “thrones of happiness” is in some instances further symbolized by expressions like “gold-encrusted” (56:15) or “raised high” (88:13).
