Paradise - الجنة (al-jannah)

The word paradise (الجنة, al-jannah, literally means "the garden". The root of this word is جنن (j-n-n). Other words derived from this word, used in the Qur'an are:

  • garden (جَنَّٰتٍ, jannatin in verse 2:25)
  • over-shadowed (جَنَّ, janna in verse 6:76)
  • jinns (ٱلْجِنَّ, aljinna in verse 6:100)
  • madness (جِنَّةٍ, jinnatin in verse 7:184)
  • madman (مَجْنُونٌ, majnoonun in verse 51:39)
  • a snake (جَآنٌّ, jannun in verse 27:10)

This word appears only in the singular form and it is a feminine word - it ends on ta marbuta (ة). When a word is alone (not in a context of an Arabic text), the ta marbuta at the end is not pronounced, so it is read as jannah, not jannat, so when using this word in English it is basically always read as jannah. But when reading whole sentences from the Qur'an in Arabic, the ta marbuta would be read as "t". There are 3 forms of الجنة:

  • ٱلْجَنَّةُ (al-jannatu) - nominative
  • ٱلْجَنَّةِ (al-jannati) - genitive
  • ٱلْجَنَّةَ (al-jannata) - accusative

And sometimes this exactly same word (only with differences in diacritics) actually refers to the jinns and not paradise:

  • ٱلْجِنَّةِ (al-jinnati)

This word sometimes appears with some prefixes.
