ومثل الذين ينفقون اموالهم ابتغاء مرضات الله وتثبيتا من انفسهم كمثل جنة بربوة اصابها وابل فاتت اكلها ضعفين فان لم يصبها وابل فطل والله بما تعملون بصير

And the likeness of those Who spend their substance, Seeking to please God And to strengthen their souls, Is as a garden, high And fertile: heavy rain Falls on it but makes it yield A double increase Of harvest, and if it receives not Heavy rain, light moisture Sufficeth it. God seeth well Whatever ye do.
