Gardens Beneath Which Rivers Flow
Gardens Beneath Which Rivers Flow

"Those – their reward is forgiveness from their Lord and gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide eternally; and excellent is the reward of the workers." (Quran 3:136)
This piece was born from a moment of quiet reflection on divine mercy and the promise of eternal peace. I painted it as an invitation: a visual pause, a reminder of home that lies beyond what we see.
Soft, celestial blues and deep cosmic hues wash over the canvas — a whispered echo of Jannah’s serenity. At its heart, the Quranic verse floats like a sacred page set free, illuminated with golden calligraphy, inviting stillness and remembrance.
The gold-framed lettering, framed against otherworldly tones, is my way of bridging this world with the next — reminding us to seek forgiveness, trust in mercy, and live in hopeful awe.
Gardens Beneath Which Rivers Flow speaks to the soul’s deepest longing — for rest, redemption, and belonging in that everlasting garden.
Mixed media on 24" x 20" canvas.



"I ordered a custom piece from Naeema to gift to my mum. Naeema's attention to detail, passion and perfectionism is reflected in her work and the whole process from discussing the art to ordering and picking up was so smooth and transparent! Definitely looking forward to ordering more from Naeema soon!
