Chapter 93, 11 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the morning hours
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. By the forenoon (after sunrise).
I swear by the early hours of the day,
And by the night when it is stillest,
By the night when it darkens (and stand still).
And the night when it covers with darkness.
Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee nor doth He hate thee,
Your Lord (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) has neither forsaken you nor hates you.
Your Lord has not forsaken you, nor has He become displeased,
And verily the latter portion will be better for thee than the former,
And indeed the Hereafter is better for you than the present (life of this world).
And surely what comes after is better for you than that which has gone before.
And verily thy Lord will give unto thee so that thou wilt be content.
And verily, your Lord will give you (all good) so that you shall be well-pleased.
And soon will your Lord give you so that you shall be well pleased.
Did He not find thee an orphan and protect (thee) ?
Did He not find you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) an orphan and gave you a refuge?
Did He not find you an orphan and give you shelter?
Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee) ?
And He found you unaware (of the Qur'an, its laws, and Prophethood) and guided you?
And find you lost (that is, unrecognized by men) and guide (them to you)?
Did He not find thee destitute and enrich (thee) ?
And He found you poor and made you rich (self-sufficient with self-contentment)?
And find you in want and make you to be free from want?
Therefor the orphan oppress not,
Therefore, treat not the orphan with oppression.
Therefore, as for the orphan, do not oppress (him).
Therefor the beggar drive not away,
And repulse not the beggar.
And as for him who asks, do not chide (him),
Therefor of the bounty of thy Lord be thy discourse.
And proclaim the Grace of your Lord (i.e. the Prophethood and all other Graces).
And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce (it).
