Ayah: 265

وَمَثَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ يُنفِقُونَ أَمۡوَٰلَهُمُ ٱبۡتِغَآءَ مَرۡضَاتِ ٱللَّهِ وَتَثۡبِيتٗا مِّنۡ أَنفُسِهِمۡ كَمَثَلِ جَنَّةِۭ بِرَبۡوَةٍ أَصَابَهَا وَابِلٞ فَـَٔاتَتۡ أُكُلَهَا ضِعۡفَيۡنِ فَإِن لَّمۡ يُصِبۡهَا وَابِلٞ فَطَلّٞۗ وَٱللَّهُ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ

265. And the example of those who spend their wealth to seek the Pleasure of Allāh and confirming (reward for) themselves is like that of a garden on an elevated ground, upon which heavy rain falls, so it brings forth its fruit twofold, but if heavy rain does not fall upon it, then a drizzle (is enough for it). Allāh Sees what you do.
