Do the following @ebrahemsamer

{!! nl2br(e($product->description)) !!}

Explination

The e() function runs PHP's htmlspecialchars function with the double_encode option set to true by default:
The nl2br() will replace \n and \r characters with <br> tags.
{!! !!} will render the output string as html

@gitwithravish your example above doesn't contain the correct amount of brackets to work.
