Tree of life (Quran)

The Tree of Immortality (Arabic: شَجَرَةُ الْخُلْد, romanized: šajara al-ḫuld) is the tree of life motif as it appears in the Quran. It is also alluded to in hadiths and tafsir. Unlike in the biblical account, the Quran mentions only one tree in Jannah, which was whispered to Adam by Shaytan as the tree of immortality, and which God specifically forbade to Adam and Hawa. There is no tree of the knowledge of good and evil in the Quran.
