Note from asker:
Ok, thank you everybody.Here what I also found: The typical layout of an Islamic garden is divided into four quarters by water channels or walkways with a water fountain or basin at its center. This quadripartite layout developed from the ancient Persian prototype mainly influenced by irrigation systems, and the Gardens of Paradise as described in the Quran and Hadith. In his ascent to heaven (Meraj) Prophet Muhammad (Pbuh) describes four rivers; one of purified water, one of milk, one of honey, and one of wine. These four rivers are also mentioned in the Qur’an: “in it are rivers of water incorruptible, rivers of milk of which the taste never change, rivers of wine, a joy to those who drink, and rivers of honey pure and clear.” (Quran, Surah Muhammad). |
