(Mail Received by Beekeeper's Home Pages) "Please print these from Quran" - "Farzaneh Shahrtash" shahrtash@telebot.com Date: Fri, 6 Aug 1999 14:54:27 -0400 These verses are in QURAN (The Holy Book) about bees and honey: Surah (Chapter) 16. The Bee Verse:68. And thy Lord taught the Bee to build its cells in hills, on trees, and in (men's) habitations; Verse:69. Then to eat of all the produce (of the earth), and find with skill the spacious paths of its Lord: there issues from within their bodies a drink of varying colours, wherein is healing for men: verily in this is a Sign for those who give thought. Surah (Chapter) 47. Muhammad Verse:15 (Here is) a Parable of the Garden which the righteous are promised: in it are rivers of water incorruptible; rivers of milk of which the taste never changes; rivers of wine, a joy to those who drink; and rivers of honey pure and clear. In it there are for them all kinds of fruits; and Grace from their Lord. (Can those in such Bliss) be compared to such as shall dwell for ever in the Fire, and be given, to drink, boiling water, so that it cuts up their bowels (to pieces)?
