Al-Báqara 2:265 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 ٢٦٥

ٱلَّذِينَ
يُنفِقُونَ
أَمۡوَٰلَهُمُ
ٱبۡتِغَآءَ

جَنَّةِۭ
بِرَبۡوَةٍ
أَصَابَهَا

أُكُلَهَا

وَابِلٞ
فَطَلّٞۗ
وَٱللَّهُ
بِمَا
تَعۡمَلُونَ
بَصِيرٌ
