On its right bank is a white pearl in which are a thousand castles. In each of the castles are a thousand castles for Muhammad (saww) and the Progeny (asws) of Muhammad (saww). And upon its left bank is a yellow pearl, in which are a thousand castles. In each of the castles for Ibrahim (as) and the Progeny (asws) of Ibrahim (as)’.
