249 Sex is not a thing to be ashamed of, or to be treated lightly, or to be indulged to excess. It is as solemn a fact as any
in life. It is compared to a husbandman's tilth; it is a serious affair to him; he sows the seed in order to reap the
harvest. But he chooses his own time and mode of cultivation. He does not sow out of season nor cultivate in a
manner which will injure or exhaust the soul. He is wise and considerate and does not run riot. Coming from the
simile to human beings, every kind of mutual consideration is required, but above all, we must remember that even in
these matters there is a spiritual aspect. We must never forget our souls, and that we are responsible to God. (2.223)
250 Our highest spiritual ambition should be the hope of meeting God. To uphold such a hope is to give glad tidings to
people of faith. It would only be unrepentant sinners who would fear the meeting. Note how the most sensuous
matters are discussed frankly, and immediately taken up into the loftiest regions of spiritual upliftment. (2.223)
6:136 - Out of what Allah hath produced in abundance in tilth and in cattle they assigned Him a
share: they say according to their fancies: "This is for Allah and this for our `partners'"! But the
share of their `partners' reacheth not Allah whilst the share of Allah reacheth their `partners'!
Evil (and unjust) is their assignment!. 958
6:141 - It is He who produceth gardens with trellises and without and dates and tilth with produce
of all kinds and olives and pomegranates similar (in kind) and different (in variety): eat of their
fruit in their season but render the dues that are proper on the day that the harvest is
gathered. But waste not by excess: for Allah loveth not the wasters. 964965966
30:51 - And if We (but) send a Wind from which they see (their tilth) turn yellow behold they
become thereafter ungrateful (Unbelievers)! 3569
3569 Another Parable from the forces of nature. We saw how the Winds gladdened, vivified, and enriched those who
utilized them in the right spirit. But a wind might be destructive to tilth in certain circumstances: so the blessings of
Allah may-by the wrongdoers resisting and blaspheming-bring punishment to the wrong-doers. Instead of taking the
punishment in the right spirit-in the spirit in which Believers of Allah take their misfortunes,-the Unbelievers curse and
deepen their sin! (30.51)
42:20 - To any that desires the tilth of the Hereafter We give increase in his tilth; and to any that
desires the tilth of this world We grant somewhat thereof but he has no share or lot in the
Hereafter. 4555
4555 The parable is from the efforts of the husbandman, who ploughs and prepares the soil, sows the seed, weeds in due
season, and reaps the harvest, You reap as you sow. But Allah will add manifold advantages for spiritual tilth. To
those who are only engrossed in the vanities of this world, something may accrue in this world, but the next world is
closed to them. (42.20)
68:22 - "Go ye to your tilth (betimes) in morning if ye would gather the fruits." 5609
5609 Awaking from sleep, they were not aware that the garden had been destroyed by the storm overnight. They were in
their own selfish dreams: by going very early, they thought they could cheat the poor of their share. See next note.
