Sam Gerrans - The Qur'an: A Complete Revelation

And He it is that produces gardens, trellised and untrellised, and the date-palms, and crops diverse in their food, and the olive and the pomegranate, similar yet different. Eat of the fruit thereof when it bears fruit, and render its due on the day of its harvest; and commit not excess, He loves not the committers of excess.

وَهُوَ الَّـذ۪ٓي اَنْشَاَ جَنَّاتٍ مَعْرُوشَاتٍ وَغَيْرَ مَعْرُوشَاتٍ وَالنَّخْلَ وَالزَّرْعَ مُخْتَلِفاً اُكُلُهُ وَالزَّيْتُونَ وَالرُّمَّانَ مُتَشَابِهاً وَغَيْرَ مُتَشَابِهٍۜ كُلُوا مِنْ ثَمَرِه۪ٓ اِذَٓا اَثْمَرَ وَاٰتُوا حَقَّهُ يَوْمَ حَصَادِه۪ۘ وَلَا تُسْرِفُواۜ اِنَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمُسْرِف۪ينَۙ
