Rizwan
Rizwan is a messanger of God and is known as the gatekeeper of the heavens. When Prophet Mohammad reached the heavens on the night of ascendance on the back of a burraq, a horse-like white animal of great speed and splendour, Jibreel (Gabriel) introduced Rizwan to the prophet. It is with reference to Rizwan that heaven is known as Bagh-e-Rizwan, or Gulzaar-e-Rizwan both of which mean the garden of Rizwan.
Reference: Jannat mein kab diye hain wo Rizwan ko martaba/Jo martaba hai teri gali mein muqeem ka (Vali Deccani), Sataaish gar hai zahid is qadar gar bagh-e Rizwan ka/ Wo ik guldasta hai ham bekhudon ke taaq-e nisyaan ka (Ghalib), Kucha-i-jaanaan mein ja nikle jo ghilmaan bhool kar/Yaad ho us ko na phir gulzar-e Rizwan bhool kar (Fani Badauni).
