[2:265]

وَمَثَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ يُنفِقُونَ أَمۡوَٲلَهُمُ ٱبۡتِغَآءَ مَرۡضَاتِ ٱللَّهِ وَتَثۡبِيتً۬ا مِّنۡ أَنفُسِهِمۡ كَمَثَلِ جَنَّةِۭ بِرَبۡوَةٍ أَصَابَهَا وَابِلٌ۬ فَـَٔاتَتۡ أُڪُلَهَا ضِعۡفَيۡنِ فَإِن لَّمۡ يُصِبۡہَا وَابِلٌ۬ فَطَلٌّ۬‌ۗ وَٱللَّهُ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ

And the likeness of those who spend their wealth in search of Allah's pleasure, and for the strengthening of their souls, is as the likeness of a garden on a height. The rainstorm smiteth it and it bringeth forth its fruit twofold. And if the rainstorm smite it not, then the shower. Allah is Seer of what ye do.

.

.

.

Och liknelsen av dem som tillbringar sin rikedom på jakt efter Allahs välbehag, och för att stärka sina själar, är som att likna en trädgård på en höjd. Den regnstorm angriper det och det frambringar dess frukt dubbelt. Och om regnstorm slår det inte, då duschen. Allah Ser vad ni gör.

[2:266]

أَيَوَدُّ أَحَدُڪُمۡ أَن تَكُونَ لَهُ ۥ جَنَّةٌ۬ مِّن نَّخِيلٍ۬ وَأَعۡنَابٍ۬ تَجۡرِى مِن تَحۡتِهَا ٱلۡأَنۡهَـٰرُ لَهُ ۥ فِيهَا مِن ڪُلِّ ٱلثَّمَرَٲتِ وَأَصَابَهُ ٱلۡكِبَرُ وَلَهُ ۥ ذُرِّيَّةٌ۬ ضُعَفَآءُ فَأَصَابَهَآ إِعۡصَارٌ۬ فِيهِ نَارٌ۬ فَٱحۡتَرَقَتۡ‌ۗ كَذَٲلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ ٱللَّهُ لَڪُمُ ٱلۡأَيَـٰتِ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَتَفَكَّرُونَ

Would any of you like to have a garden of palm-trees and vines, with rivers flowing underneath it, with all kinds of fruit for him therein; and old age hath stricken him and he hath feeble offspring; and a fiery whirlwind striketh it and it is (all) consumed by fire. Thus Allah maketh plain His revelations unto you, in order that ye may give thought.

.

.

.

Skulle någon av er vilja ha en trädgård med palmer och vinrankor, med floder under den, med alla sorters frukter för honom där, och ålderdom hath drabbade honom och han har svaga avkomma, och en eldig virvelvind strejk den och Det är (alla) som förbrukas av eld. Således Allah låter vanligt Hans uppenbarelser eder, för att ni kan fundera.

[2:267]

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ أَنفِقُواْ مِن طَيِّبَـٰتِ مَا ڪَسَبۡتُمۡ وَمِمَّآ أَخۡرَجۡنَا لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡأَرۡضِ‌ۖ وَلَا تَيَمَّمُواْ ٱلۡخَبِيثَ مِنۡهُ تُنفِقُونَ وَلَسۡتُم بِـَٔاخِذِيهِ إِلَّآ أَن تُغۡمِضُواْ فِيهِ‌ۚ وَٱعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَنِىٌّ حَمِيدٌ

O ye who believe! Spend of the good things which ye have earned, and of that which We bring forth from the earth for you, and seek not the bad (with intent) to spend thereof (in charity) when ye would not take it for yourselves save with disdain; and know that Allah is Absolute, Owner of Praise.

.

.

.

O ni som tror! Tillbringa av de goda ting som ni har tjänat, och av det som vi frambringar ur jorden för er, och söker inte de dåliga (med uppsåt) att spendera detta (i välgörenhet) när ni inte skulle ta det själva spara med förakt , och vet att Allah är Absolut, ägare till Prisa.

We dident go to any garden yesterday... like I thought.  

But Gökhan and I went shoping instead much better I think. We found washing pouder for super price, 8 kg for 15 TL which is 75 kr! They also had great price on chicken, fish and some sort of baklava, I told Gökhan that dede should be happy if we bought some baklava for him ... but it was actually just a cover for me!  

We later meet up with Serkan and his friend from cyprus at forum. We sat down at the terass and what do you think I see ... Yes I see the same girl I meet at Adana airport when I was coming here. All that came from out of  Turkey had to go to another arrivel and non of us understod why we had to, this girl came from London and also had her boyfriend here in Mersin.

Later that evening when we at dinner, yeah what do I see there 2 table far from us ... Yeah I see another foreigner, I thought she looked like a swedish girl but the guys thought she look lika coming from russia. Hmm, its not easy to see where people come from. People often thinks I come from Germany ... maybe that girl came from Germany, hmm who knows.

And today I regret I dident go and talk to those girls. It should ge great if I had someone eals to talk to and that knows english well. Insallah one day!
