Chapter 93, 11 verses
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والضحى
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. By the forenoon (after sunrise).
By the Glorious Morning Light,
وَٱلضُّحَىٰ
والليل إذا سجى
By the night when it darkens (and stand still).
And by the Night when it is still, -
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ
ما ودعك ربك وما قلى
Your Lord (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) has neither forsaken you nor hates you.
Thy Guardian - Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor is He displeased.
مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ
وللآخرة خير لك من الأولى
And indeed the Hereafter is better for you than the present (life of this world).
And verily the Hereafter will be better for thee than the present.
وَلَلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ
ولسوف يعطيك ربك فترضى
And verily, your Lord will give you (all good) so that you shall be well-pleased.
And soon will thy Guardian - Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt be well - pleased.
وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰٓ
ألم يجدك يتيما فآوى
Did He not find you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) an orphan and gave you a refuge?
Did He not find thee an orphan and give thee shelter (and care)?
أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًا فَـَٔاوَىٰ
ووجدك ضالا فهدى
And He found you unaware (of the Qur'an, its laws, and Prophethood) and guided you?
And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance.
وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّا فَهَدَىٰ
ووجدك عائلا فأغنى
And He found you poor and made you rich (self-sufficient with self-contentment)?
And He found thee in need, and made thee independent.
وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلًا فَأَغْنَىٰ
فأما اليتيم فلا تقهر
Therefore, treat not the orphan with oppression.
Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness,
فَأَمَّا ٱلْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ
وأما السائل فلا تنهر
And repulse not the beggar.
Nor repulse the petitioner (unheard);
وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ
وأما بنعمة ربك فحدث
And proclaim the Grace of your Lord (i.e. the Prophethood and all other Graces).
But the bounty of the Lord - rehearse and proclaim!
وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ
