A description that stayed with people

Two bodies of water meeting without mixing.

The opening words

مَرَجَ ٱلْبَحْرَيْنِ يَلْتَقِيَانِ بَيْنَهُمَا بَرْزَخٌ لَّا يَبْغِيَانِ فَبِأَىِّ ءَالَآءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ يَخْرُجُ مِنْهُمَا ٱللُّؤْلُؤُ وَٱلْمَرْجَانُ

Maraja-l-baḥrayni yaltaqiyān, baynahumā barzakhun lā yabghiyān…

The pronunciation above covers the opening of this passage, not all of it

“He released the two seas, meeting [one another]; Between them is a barrier so neither of them transgresses. So which of the favors of your Lord would you deny? From both of them emerge pearl and coral.”

The recitation covers the whole verse these words are taken from. Recitation by Mishari Rashid al-Afasy, via Quran.com
