And on the earth there are ˹different˺ neighbouring tracts, gardens of grapevines, ˹various˺ crops, palm trees—some stemming from the same root, others standing alone. They are all irrigated with the same water, yet We make some taste better than others. Surely in this are signs for those who understand.
which Allah unleashed on them non-stop for seven nights and eight days, so that you would have seen its people lying dead like trunks of uprooted palm trees.
50:10 - Qaf
Verse 10
وَٱلنَّخۡلَبَاسِقَٰتٖلَّهَاطَلۡعٞنَّضِيدٞ١٠
Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
and towering palm trees ˹loaded˺ with clustered fruit,
Give them ˹O Prophet˺ an example of two men. To ˹the disbelieving˺ one We gave two gardens of grapevines, which We surrounded with palm trees and placed ˹various˺ crops in between.
And from the fruits of palm trees and grapevines you derive intoxicants1 as well as wholesome provision. Surely in this is a sign for those who understand.
55:68 - Ar-Rahman
Verse 68
فِيهِمَافَٰكِهَةٞوَنَخۡلٞوَرُمَّانٞ٦٨
Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
In both will be fruit, palm trees, and pomegranates.
Pharaoh threatened, “How dare you believe in him before I give you permission? He must be your master who taught you magic. I will certainly cut off your hands and feet on opposite sides, and crucify you on the trunks of palm trees. You will really see whose punishment is more severe and more lasting.”
And He is the One Who sends down rain from the sky—causing all kinds of plants to grow—producing green stalks from which We bring forth clustered grain. And from palm trees come clusters of dates hanging within reach. ˹There are˺ also gardens of grapevines, olives, and pomegranates, similar ˹in shape˺ but dissimilar ˹in taste˺. Look at their fruit as it yields and ripens! Indeed, in these are signs for people who believe.
He is the One Who produces gardens—both cultivated and wild1—and palm trees, crops of different flavours, olives, and pomegranates—similar ˹in shape˺, but dissimilar ˹in taste˺. Eat of the fruit they bear and pay the dues at harvest, but do not waste. Surely He does not like the wasteful.
26:148 - Ash-Shu'ara
Verse 148
وَزُرُوعٖوَنَخۡلٖطَلۡعُهَاهَضِيمٞ١٤٨
Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
and ˹various˺ crops, and palm trees ˹loaded˺ with tender fruit;
Would any of you wish to have a garden with palm trees, grapevines, and all kinds of fruits with rivers flowing underneath and as they grow very old with dependent children, a fiery whirlwind hits the garden, burning it all up? This is how Allah makes His revelations clear to you, so perhaps you will reflect.
