Tafheem-ul-Quran (En) - Faatir : 12
وَ مَا یَسْتَوِی الْبَحْرٰنِ١ۖۗ هٰذَا عَذْبٌ فُرَاتٌ سَآئِغٌ شَرَابُهٗ وَ هٰذَا مِلْحٌ اُجَاجٌ١ؕ وَ مِنْ كُلٍّ تَاْكُلُوْنَ لَحْمًا طَرِیًّا وَّ تَسْتَخْرِجُوْنَ حِلْیَةً تَلْبَسُوْنَهَا١ۚ وَ تَرَى الْفُلْكَ فِیْهِ مَوَاخِرَ لِتَبْتَغُوْا مِنْ فَضْلِهٖ وَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُوْنَ
And the two bodies of water are not alike 27 : one is sweet and thirst-quenching, pleasant to drink, while the other is saltish and pungent; yet froth both you get fresh flesh 28 and bring out decorations to wear, 29 and in the same waters you see the ships which plough through it so that you may seek Allah's bounty and be grateful to Him.
27 That is, the body of water in the oceans, and the body of water in the rivers and springs and lakes. 28 "Fresh flesh": Flesh of water animals. 29 That is pearls and corals and, in some rivers, diamonds and gold.
