مَرَجَ ٱلۡبَحۡرَيۡنِ يَلۡتَقِيَانِ (١٩) بَيۡنَہُمَا بَرۡزَخٌ۬ لَّا يَبۡغِيَانِ (٢٠)
He merged the two seas [that] meet together (19) Between them [both] is an isthmus [i.e., an obstruction] [which] they do not overpass. [Literally: none of them is inequitable[ (20). (55:19-20)
يَخۡرُجُ مِنۡہُمَا ٱللُّؤۡلُؤُ وَٱلۡمَرۡجَانُ (٥٥:٢٢)
From these seas come forth pearls and coral (55:22).

الرّضا (علیه السلام):مَرَجَ الْبَحْرَیْنِ یَلْتَقِیانِ قال عَلِيٌّ (علیه السلام) و فَاطِمَةَْ (سلام الله علیها). عَلِيَّ (علیه السلام) وَ فَاطِمَةٌْ (سلام الله علیها)بَحْرَانِ عَمِیقَانِ لَا یَبْغِی أَحَدُهُمَا عَلَی صَاحِبِهِ. {فَ}للُّؤْلُؤُ الْحَسَنُ (علیه السلام) وَ الْمَرْجَانُ الْحُسَیْنُ (علیه السلام)
