Chapter 93, 11 verses
I swear by the early hours of the day,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والضحى
Waaldduha
By the morning brightness
And the night when it covers with darkness.
والليل إذا سجى
Waallayli itha saja
And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,
Your Lord has not forsaken you, nor has He become displeased,
ما ودعك ربك وما قلى
Ma waddaAAaka rabbuka wama qala
Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you].
And surely what comes after is better for you than that which has gone before.
وللآخرة خير لك من الأولى
Walalakhiratu khayrun laka mina aloola
And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life].
And soon will your Lord give you so that you shall be well pleased.
ولسوف يعطيك ربك فترضى
Walasawfa yuAAteeka rabbuka fatarda

Did He not find you an orphan and give you shelter?
ألم يجدك يتيما فآوى
Alam yajidka yateeman faawa

And find you lost (that is, unrecognized by men) and guide (them to you)?
ووجدك ضالا فهدى
Wawajadaka dallan fahada

And find you in want and make you to be free from want?
ووجدك عائلا فأغنى

Therefore, as for the orphan, do not oppress (him).
فأما اليتيم فلا تقهر
Faamma alyateema fala taqhar

And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce (it).
