6:141 (Y. Ali) 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.
13:4 (Y. Ali) And in the earth are tracts (diverse though) neighbouring, and gardens of vines and fields sown with corn, and palm trees - growing out of single roots or otherwise: watered with the same water, yet some of them We make more excellent than others to eat. Behold, verily in these things there are signs for those who understand!
16:11 (Y. Ali) With it He produces for you corn, olives, date-palms, grapes and every kind of fruit: verily in this is a sign for those who give thought.
56:29 (Y. Ali) Among Talh (Bananas) trees with flowers (or fruits) piled one above another,-
95:1 (Y. Ali) By the Fig and the Olive,
2:61 (Y. Ali) And remember ye said: "O Moses! we cannot endure one kind of food (always); so beseech thy Lord for us to produce for us of what the earth groweth, -its pot-herbs, and cucumbers, Its garlic, lentils, and onions." He said: "Will ye exchange the better for the worse? Go ye down to any town, and ye shall find what ye want!" They were covered with humiliation and misery; they drew on themselves the wrath of Allah. This because they went on rejecting the Signs of Allah and slaying His Messengers without just cause. This because they rebelled and went on transgressing.
19:25 (Y. Ali) "And shake towards thyself the trunk of the palm-tree: It will let fall fresh ripe dates upon thee.
The photo is delightful. I went to the store and purchased some mango's but they were not ripe. What is the best way to ripen mango's?
I suggest to put in in the fruit bowl with other fruit. Do not refrigerate.
They should ripen within 2-3 days.
Some people suggest putting the Mango in a paper bag for a couple of days. I have never tried that myself.
Paper Bags
Many fruits -- including avocados, bananas, pears, peaches, and tomatoes -- will ripen better when placed in a paper bag.To hasten the ripening process of any fruit, place an already ripe apple or banana peel in the same bag and store it at room temperature.
Once your fruits have adequately ripened, you can halt the process by putting them in the refrigerator.
fruits- i love them all-but mainly eat bananas. then anything else when in season. though kiwis as nice as they taste gives me an itchy throat and weird feeling on tongue.
in summer, strawberries dipped in chocolate! a must. and cherries, lovely. grapes love them, prefer them seedless though
vegetables-dont like brussel sprouts/cabbage (except in coleslaw)/brocoli etc much but love cucumbers,carrots, olives etc
Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one calling to Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed.
Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and expiate from us our evil deeds, and make us die (in the state of righteousness) along with Al-Abrar
Ašh hadu al-lā ilāha illā-llāhu, wa ašh hadu anna Muhammadun ‘abduhu wa rasūluhu
I bear witness that none is worthy of worship but Allah, the One alone, without partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger

I like carrots, cucumbers and celery and have them almost everyday coupled with blue cheese salad dressing..
I like all kinds of fruits with the exception of apples and pears and that is because I have had an apple a day for as long as I remember, my father forces me to have an apple everyday so even when I am away from home I eat that abominable fruit just to please him in absentia ..
I don't like fruits that are too sweet which is exactly way I lean more toward vegetables than fruits..

Really? I thought it was fine to refrigerate them. Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

^ Yeah mangoes are amazing. And strawberries, watermelon, (chilled) pineapple, pomegranate, guava, fig, cantaloupe, and tangerines. I feel like I'm forgetting something
My vegetable list is longer.. so I won't bother.
You like vegetables better than fruit?!?!?
And the other fruit you mentioned, I love them too... chilled watermelon or cantaloupe on a hot summers day... ahhhhh....

Parsley's a vegetable is it? I thought it was a herb

You're right but there's a minority that consider parsley a vegetable...

MT2:
The definition of Parsley:
an herb, Pertoselinum crispum, native to the Mediterranean, having either curled leaf clusters (French parsley) or flat compound leaves (Italian parsley), widely cultivated for use in garnishing or seasoning food.
the leaves of this plant, used to garnish or season food.
Another type of parsley is grown as a root vegetable, as with the hamburg root parsley. This type of parsley produces much thicker roots than types cultivated for their leaves.
Root vegetables are plant roots used as vegetables. Only added to the confusion. The plant roots are planted next to other vegetables to attract them from other vegetables.
GARLIC!!!! I lOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVEEEEE GARLIC. If I have no plans to go out then I love to stick garlic right in between my jacket potato, on my toast, with my veg, in my pasta and plenty of it. Sod the people
