This verse (22:14) describes the reward for believers who perform righteous deeds: entry into "gardens beneath which rivers flow" (جَنَّٰتٍۢ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَٰرُ). Ibn Kathir (Source 1) explicitly identifies these as "gardens of Paradise," contrasting them with the doom of the misguided. The phrase "gardens beneath which rivers flow" is a recurring Quranic description of Paradise, as seen in 14:23 and 13:23-24 (Source 3), emphasizing its blissful and permanent nature.

While the term "holiday destination" implies a temporary leisure trip, the Quranic description of Paradise denotes an eternal abode of reward. The language used, such as "dwell therein forever" (خَـلِدِينَ فِيهَا) (14:23, Source 3) and "rest and provision, and a Garden of Delights" (56:88-89, Source 2, 4), signifies a state of ultimate, everlasting contentment. The concept of Paradise is not merely a destination for recreation but the ultimate recompense for faith and good deeds, a permanent dwelling granted by Allah, Who "does what He intends" (إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَفْعَلُ مَا يُرِيدُ). Therefore, it is not a "holiday destination" in the worldly sense, but the eternal reward for the righteous.
