Exegesis of His saying, the Exalted: (In them are those who avert their gaze)

Allah the Exalted said:
In them are women limiting [their] glancesفِيهِنَّ قَاصِرَاتُ الطَّرْفِ
[Ar-Rahman: 56] (In them) Most people say that the pronoun refers to the two gardens, and that the plural is used because each person has a garden specific to them, so (in them) means: in the garden of each person who is in these two gardens. (Those who avert their gaze) And in my view, the statement (in them) includes the four gardens: these two gardens and the two gardens that follow them. (Those who avert their gaze) means: that they avert their gaze—Meaning: their look—toward their husband, so they do not desire anyone else. This is one interpretation.

And there is another interpretation:
Those who avert their gazeقَاصِرَاتُ الطَّرْفِ
And according to the first opinion: In this case, "those who avert" is attributed to the doer.And on the second view: In this case, "those who avert" is attributed to the object.Meaning: That their gaze is averted toward the husbands, or that his gaze is averted toward them.
untouched before them by man or jinni -لَمْ يَطْمِثْهُنَّ إِنْسٌ قَبْلَهُمْ وَلا جَانٌّ
[Ar-Rahman: 56] (No man or jinn has touched them) means: no one has had intercourse with them.And it was said: For "touching" (tamth) means having intercourse with a virgin.And the meaning is: That they are virgins whom no one has had intercourse with before, neither human nor jinn. In this is clear evidence that the believers among the jinn enter Paradise.
