Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

The raised Couches and the lack of Heat and ColdAllah tells us about the people of Paradise and the eternal delights they will experience, as well as the comprehensive favors that they will be given. Allah says,مُّتَّكِئِينَ فِيهَا عَلَى الاٌّرَائِكِ(Reclining therein on raised couches.) This has already been discussed in Surat As-Saffat and the difference of opinion about the meaning of reclining.
