۞ وَٱضْرِبْ لَهُم مَّثَلًۭا رَّجُلَيْنِ جَعَلْنَا لِأَحَدِهِمَا جَنَّتَيْنِ مِنْ أَعْنَٰبٍۢ وَحَفَفْنَٰهُمَا بِنَخْلٍۢ وَجَعَلْنَا بَيْنَهُمَا زَرْعًۭا
And present to them an example of two men: We granted to one of them two gardens of grapevines, and We bordered them with palm trees and placed between them [fields of] crops.

Ibn Kathīr (abridged)
The Example of the Rich Idolators and the Poor Muslims
After mentioning the idolators who were too arrogant to sit with the poor and weak among Muslims, showing off before them with their wealth and noble lineage, Allah then gives a parable for them of two men, one of whom Allah gave two gardens of grapes, surrounded with palm trees and cultivated with crops throughout. All of the trees and plants were abundantly fruitful, providing readily accessible, good quality produce. Allah says:
كِلْتَا الْجَنَّتَيْنِ آتَتْ أُكُلَهَا
(Each of those two gardens brought forth its produce,) meaning, produced its fruits,
وَلَمْ تَظْلِمِ مِّنْهُ شَيْئًا
(and failed not in the least therein,) meaning, nothing at all was diminishing.
