43:71
Taladhdhu'l-acyunu (The eyes delight in)
Regarding the bounties of paradise, God says in verse (43:71): "And in it (paradise) there is all that the souls could desire and the eyes could delight in." That is, everything is available in paradise for the souls and intellects and the supreme bounty is the holy Divine vision, because it is the Divine vision for which the eyes of the lovers of God continue to shed tears.
An intelligent person who is aware of the exoteric aspect of
the Qur’an might ask where these flowers have been
mentioned in the Qur’an. The answer is that everything is
mentioned in the Qur’an in the language of wisdom and
accordingly wherever words like jannah, rawdah, hadiqah
or any other word that is used for Paradise is mentioned in
the Qur’an, there you will find hidden the mention of
flowers. Further, flowers of Paradise are also mentioned in
those verses in which the trees and fruits of Paradise are
described, for Paradise (garden) presents the concept of
both fruit and flower, and trees and fruits are not possible
without flowers. An important point here is that just as sight
is the most noble of the external senses, similarly the
noblest of the internal senses is spiritual insight (basirat),
for which there are various kinds of subtle scenes (43:71)
including scenes with subtle flowers.
