The Chapter of the Women
[4:142 ]The Hypocrites - they think they are over-reaching God, but He will over- reach them: When they stand up to prayer, they stand without earnestness, to be seen of men, but little do they hold God in remembrance;
[4:143] (They are) distracted in mind even in the midst of it,- being (sincerely) for neither one group nor for another whom God leaves straying,- never wilt thou find for him the way.
[4:144] O ye who believe! Take not for friends unbelievers rather than believers: Do ye wish to offer God an open proof against yourselves?
[4:145] The Hypocrites will be in the lowest depths of the Fire: no helper wilt thou find for them;-
[4:146] Except for those who repent, mend (their lives) hold fast to God, and purify their religion as in God’s sight: if so they will be (numbered) with the believers. And soon will God grant to the believers a reward of immense value.
[4:147] What can God gain by your punishment, if ye are grateful and ye believe? Nay, it is God that recogniseth (all good), and knoweth all things.
[4:148] God loveth not that evil should be noised abroad in public speech, except where injustice hath been done; for God is He who heareth and knoweth all things.
[4:149] Whether ye publish a good deed or conceal it or cover evil with pardon, verily God doth blot out (sins) and hath power (in the judgment of values).
[4:150] Those who deny God and His apostles, and (those who) wish to separate God from His apostles, saying: "We believe in some but reject others": And (those who) wish to take a course midway,-
[4:151] They are in truth (equally) unbelievers; and we have prepared for unbelievers a humiliating punishment.
[4:152] To those who believe in God and His apostles and make no distinction between any of the apostles, we shall soon give their (due) rewards: for God is Oft- forgiving, Most Merciful.

i wish i had photo sending capibilities, but instead this comes out:)
we're hypocrites babe,
always the same,
always pretending
When you wake up in the morning, look yourself in the mirror and promise
yourself that you won't be a hypocrite.

After repeatedly admonishing Swiper for his swiping, it's rather hypocritical of Dora to turn to a life of piracy. I must've missed the episode where she lost her hand.
Feb. 28, '26: I pray for Iran and for all Iranians, a beautiful country filled with beautiful people, victimized since the advent of the mass production of motor vehicles because they live above such a great wealth of natural resources in oil and gas. They're in the same club as the Iraqis, the Libyans, the Congolese and the Venezuelans (despite the wall to wall media propaganda re Israeli security concerns, etc., etc.), but they have the ingenuity and strength of will to fight back when they have to, and now they have to. (I might be a hypocrite to pray for anything seeing as I'm not religious, but I don't care.)
I wrote the following a year or two ago.:
This is taken in "perhaps the finest surviving" historic garden in Iran per my LP guide. The royal garden in Fin, 2.3 ha.s, at the southern limits of Kashan, captures the Soleimaniyeh spring, fed by clear, cold waters from the Dandāna and Haft Kotal mtn.s via qanats, and directs it into a symmetrical layout of watercourses and basins framing garden plots and small bldg.s, and which ultimately irrigates the two small villages of Upper and Lower Fin. This water is said to have curative powers. Although a garden was on-site much earlier than the Safavid period, the exterior wall with its 4 round towers and monumental entrance portal, central pavilion (in which this was taken), and a small hamam (see below) are Safavid constructions, and a larger hamam, another pavilion and a library are Qajar (according to Archnet). The 'shotor gelou', this central, 2-story pavilion, contains 4 alcoves and daises, and connects to a rectangular reflecting pool. "Water from the spring is forced up by natural pressure through a series of holes in the floor of the first shallow pool near the SW wall [and] flows over into a system of channels which runs along the SW wall as well as toward the centre of the garden into the main pavilion." ('Three Gardens', Herdeg) Long rectangular blue-tiled pools, including one filled by 12 spouts in a row down its centre, overflow into these channels. Tall cedar trees as old as 500 yr.s, known as 'Kashi (Zarbin)', grow together with cypress and plane trees.
- One pool famous for its engineering is the 'Hoz-e-Joosh' which has an array of 160 holes. 80 conduct water into the pool and 80 drain it such that the water level is constant. The French absconded with tiles from this pool in the 1870s or '80s and which are now in the Louvre. The hydraulics in use at Fin were pioneered by the famous 10th cent. mathematician Ghias-eddin Jamshid Kashani, who exploited the 'surface dispute' and the natural slope of the garden to mount the fountains two centuries before Pascal.
- Per a preponderance of sources the garden was built in its current form by Shah 'Abbas I (r 1571-1629). According to Wikipedia, it's the oldest extant garden in Iran.
- The garden was damaged in an earthquake in 1778. Fath-'Alī Shah ordered repairs in 1805 and built a gatehouse and the pavilion known as 'Ṣhotor Galou-e-Qajari' (completed in 1811 per a chronogrammatic poem by Ḵāvarī inscribed in raised nastaʿlīq) above a turquoise-tiled pool and fountains (similar to those in the 'Shotor gelou' in this photo). The pavilion's ceilings, some of the loveliest from the Qajar era in Iran, are intricately decorated (but which I don't recall and which might not have been restored by 2000?). upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1c/Fin_garden_ce...
upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1b/Fin_Garden_Ku... The Qajar Shah also built the 2nd 'Royal' hamam in 1811 in the exterior wall for his exclusive use and that of his courtiers. The older Safavid hamam next to it was used by garden personnel during the week and by the public on weekends. It was in that older hamam that Amīr Kabīr was assassinated. (a plaque onsite)
- Qajar shahs maintained the garden and used it as a base camp en route to their hunting grounds @ Kashan. Towards the end of the Qajar era, some of the rulers of Kashan used it as their residence and seat of government.
- Fin is "renowned as the very epitome of the Persian garden and its evocation of heaven." (LP) The word 'paradise' originates in Iran. The Iranian garden is an enclosed or walled space, and 'firdaus' in Farsi means enclosed garden or enclosed space. "The Avestan word pairidaēza-, Old Persian paridaida-, or Median paridaiza-, "walled-around" (i.e., a walled garden), were borrowed into Elamite (partetaš) and Akkadian [!], and later as Ancient Greek: παράδεισος, romanized: parádeisos. It was rendered as Latin paradīsus, and from there entered into European languages. ... The same word was used to describe the Elamite custom of creating a sacred grove or husa surrounding a royal grave, the site of veneration of the deceased king." (Wikipedia)
- This is one of 9 gardens designated together as a Unesco 'World heritage site', 'the Persian Garden'. "They exemplify the diversity of Persian garden designs that evolved and adapted to different climate conditions while retaining principles that have roots in the age of Cyrus the Great, the 6th cent. BC. Always divided into 4 sectors, with water playing an important role for both irrigation and ornamentation, the Persian garden was conceived to symbolize paradise and the four Zoroastrian elements of sky, earth, water and plants. [Not air, earth, water and fire?] These gardens, dating to different periods following the 6th cent. BC [when "its first mature expression was found in the garden of Cyrus' palatial complex at Pasargadae", see below], all feature pavilions, walls and sophisticated irrigation systems. They've influenced the art of garden design as far as India [the Mughal "Humayun's Tomb and the Taj Mahal [are surrounded by] some of the largest Persian gardens in the world" {Wikipedia}, together with the Bagh-e Babur {one of 10 designed by Babur in Kabul}, the Shalimar Bagh and Nishat Bagh of Kashmir, and the Shalimar gardens in Lahore {which I toured in '97}] and Spain. ... The perfect design of the Persian Garden, with its ability to respond to extreme climatic conditions, is the original result of the inspired and intelligent application of technology, water management and engineering, architecture, botany and agriculture. The notion of the Persian Garden permeates Iranian life and its artistic expressions. References to it are found in literature, poetry, music, calligraphy and carpet design. These, in turn, have inspired the arrangement of the gardens." (Unesco) The 9 include the sites of 2 former gardens, which "may be read as fossil landscapes", at Pasargadae and Bagh-e Abas Abad. I toured 5 of the 9, incl. this (the westernmost of the 9), the Bagh-e Chehel Sotun in Esfahan, Bagh-e Dowlat Abad in Yazd, the (site of the) ancient garden of Pasargadae, and the large Bagh-e Eram (the southernmost) in Shiraz.
- In Xenophon's 'Oeconomicus' (early-4th-cent. BC), Socrates gives an account of "the Spartan general Lysander's visit to the Persian prince Cyrus the Younger, who shows [him] his "paradise at Sardis". Lysander is "astonished at the beauty of the trees within, all planted at equal intervals, the long straight rows of waving branches, the perfect regularity, the rectangular symmetry of the whole, and the many sweet scents which hung about them as they paced the park."
- Re the symbolism of the garden's division into 4 quadrants: "The aesthetic [rules of garden design] increased in importance, overtaking utility, in the Umayyad and Abbasid periods. An example of this is the Chahār bāgh ['4 gardens'] a form of garden [one of 6 "primary styles of the Persian garden"] that emulates the Abrahamic notion of a Garden of Eden, with 4 rivers and 4 quadrants representing the world. One axis can extend further than the cross-axis and the garden may feature water channels that run through each quadrant and connect to a central pool. Under the Abbasids in the 8th cent., this type of garden became an integral part of representational architecture." (Wikipedia) It's coincidental that the 4 rivers that surround the Garden of Eden in Genesis became a basis for garden design in medieval Iran, as an interesting argument's been made recently that those 4 rivers and the site of Eden described in Genesis are to be found in and @ the valley just east of Tabriz today, which I write about here.: www.flickr.com/photos/97924400@N00/2991977375/in/datepost...

- From the Shahnameh, viii: 345: 275-282:
"Iran is like a lush Spring garden
Where Roses ever bloom.
The army and weapons are the garden's walls
And lances its wall of thorns.
If the garden's walls are pulled down
Then there would be no difference /b/ it and the wilderness [beyond].
Take care not to destroy its walls
And not to dishearten or weaken Iranians.
If you do, then raiding and pillaging will follow
And also the battle-cries of riders and the din of war.
Risk not the safety of the Iranians' wives, children, and lands
by bad policies and plans."
- Fin Garden owes some notoriety to its history as the home in exile from Dec. 3, 1851 of the deposed Prime Minister Mīrzā Taqī Khan Amīr Kabīr (aka Amir Kabir), the Grand Vizier or Chancellor to Nasir ad-Din Shah, a great reformer who sought to modernize Iran and confront corruption, and as the site of his assassination in the small Safavid ḥamām on Jan. 10, 1852, presumedly on the Shah's orders. (The court and clergy were said to have felt threatened by the vizier's popularity.) I'd never heard of Amir Kabir before, and the hamam in which he met his end is unremarkable youtube.com/shorts/Tv7OEL_IBB4?si=y0doD-athP3GNtae but the traffic of local Iranian tourists within and their express interest made an impression. He's celebrated in Iran today as a great hero and a martyr. youtube.com/shorts/j01C55FFDqU?si=5CizbA7ctXKIpku1 youtu.be/JrtOA1IN7mg?si=Qan39m6K0MwYNR6C
- The 'Kashani National museum' occupies a small pavilion and exhibits "fine examples of Kashani velvet and brocade, ceramics, calligraphy, and a scale model of the garden". (LP) I don't recall it but it was mentioned in the LP and I'm sure I toured it.
- After touring the Fin Garden and its museum, I walked back to Kashan up Amir Kabir st. towards Kashan to Tappe Sialk. See my next photo.

"God entrusted the most beautiful life-giving message in the world to selfish, hypocritical, prideful people that are growing closer to the image of God from one degree of glory to another."
In 1883, after his venom-laced portrayal of hypocritical bourgeois families in Pot-Bouille, author Émile Zola employed the principal character once more as the brilliant owner of a fictional department store, “Au Bonheur des Dames.” Octave Mouret, a business genius with obsessive ambition and boundless energy, has turned his inconspicuous clothing shop into a behemoth department store, the first of its kind. He employs hundreds of workers over half a dozen departments as well as a mail-order service; he has bought out all the surrounding buildings to continue increasing his store; he utilizes the most innovative techniques to lure in thousands of customers. When the country shopgirl, Denise, finally agrees to marry him in the final chapter, he emerges completely victorious; he has defeated the only woman to resist him, and in his most recent sale he has crushed the rival department stores. Zola’s story, though with fictional names, resembles in nearly every way the meteoric rise of Aristide Boucicaut, founder of “Le Bon Marché,” even today one of the largest department stores in Paris. Boucicaut’s enormous store in the seventh arrondissement created a revolution in commerce that proved to be a windfall for consumers and the deathblow for hundreds of small merchants. As more grands magasins sprouted across the city, voices too appeared to laud the stores as progress or decry them as dangerous.
Aristide Boucicaut began his career with next to nothing. Starting “with $25 of miscellaneous goods,” he hawked his way to enough money to buy half a share in a fabric shop, Petit St. Thomas, in Paris (Cole, 117). Although customers were few and profits limited, Boucicaut proved an exceptional businessman; to tempt customers, he handed out needles and thread in front of the shop (Shaw, 317). By 1850, the shop had expanded its wares, and the store grew rapidly. In 1863, Boucicaut was able to buy out his partner for 1,520,000 francs (Avenel, 336). By 1869, the total annual sales had reached twenty-one million francs (Walton, 193). At this point, Boucicaut believed it was time to increase the business still, and began construction on the present-day location of “Le Bon Marché” wedged between the Rue de Sèvres and the Rue de Babylone. By his death in 1877, the store’s sales totaled sixty-seven million francs.
