N2  -  Objective: Islam has always portrayed the human status after death. This trend can be seen in several Islamic sources such as fundamental texts and theosophical manuscripts. Some of those are the verses about heaven and hell mentioned at the holy Quran occasionally. Surah Al-Rahman has presented exquisite descriptions of paradise among other allegorical verses, in which we can find out basic elements of landscape architecture and garden design.
At outset, this paper deals with the history of main elements of Islamic garden like tree and water in ancient culture and mythology. Thereupon, we also review the Islamic doctrine of paradise to realize the main concept and design features of it in Quran.
Method: Descriptive-analytical method has been employed to conduct the study with a focus on verses of Surah Al-Rahman, aiming to introduce the architectural concepts of Quranic verses. 
Conclusion: The study indicates that Muslim architects have always tried to derive the landscape architecture and design criteria for their garden design from the verses of the holy Quran.
