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).

And by the night when it is stillest,
By the night when it darkens (and stand still).
und der Nacht, wenn sie (alles) umhüllt!
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.
Dein Herr hat sich weder von dir verabschiedet noch haßt Er (dich).
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).
Und das Jenseits ist wahrlich besser für dich als das Diesseits.
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.
Und dein Herr wird dir wahrlich geben, und dann wirst du zufrieden sein.
Did He not find thee an orphan and protect (thee) ?

Hat Er dich nicht als Waise gefunden und (dir) dann Zuflucht verschafft

And He found you unaware (of the Qur'an, its laws, and Prophethood) and guided you?
und dich irregehend gefunden und dann rechtgeleitet

Therefor the orphan oppress not,

Was nun die Waise angeht, so unterjoche (sie) nicht,
Therefor the beggar drive not away,
And repulse not the beggar.
und was den Bettler angeht, so fahre (ihn) nicht an,
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).
und was die Gunst deines Herrn angeht, so erzähle (davon).
