Sura 6
Aya 141
141
۞ وَهُوَ الَّذي أَنشَأَ جَنّاتٍ مَعروشاتٍ وَغَيرَ مَعروشاتٍ وَالنَّخلَ وَالزَّرعَ مُختَلِفًا أُكُلُهُ وَالزَّيتونَ وَالرُّمّانَ مُتَشابِهًا وَغَيرَ مُتَشابِهٍ ۚ كُلوا مِن ثَمَرِهِ إِذا أَثمَرَ وَآتوا حَقَّهُ يَومَ حَصادِهِ ۖ وَلا تُسرِفوا ۚ إِنَّهُ لا يُحِبُّ المُسرِفينَ

(Muntakhab)

He is it Who brought into being orchards, some trellised and others untrellised. He brought into being the palm trees and the whole of the agricultural yield of every district and season, varying in kind and in flavour, and the olives and the pomegranates besides many others of similar species and dissimilar class. Eat, therefore, of their flowers when they come to be fruits and grow ripe and pay, when you reap in harvest, what ought to be given in benevolence or in alms, but avoid prodigality, for Allah does not like the extravagant.
