I swear by the early hours of the day,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والضحى
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالضُّحَىٰ
Chapter 93, 11 verses
I swear by the early hours of the day,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والضحى
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالضُّحَىٰ
And the night when it covers with darkness.
والليل إذا سجى
وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ
Your Lord has not forsaken you, nor has He become displeased,
ما ودعك ربك وما قلى
مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ
And surely what comes after is better for you than that which has gone before.
وللآخرة خير لك من الأولى
وَلَلْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَّكَ مِنَ الْأُولَىٰ
And soon will your Lord give you so that you shall be well pleased.
ولسوف يعطيك ربك فترضى
وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰ
Did He not find you an orphan and give you shelter?
ألم يجدك يتيما فآوى
أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًا فَآوَىٰ
And find you lost (that is, unrecognized by men) and guide (them to you)?
ووجدك ضالا فهدى
وَوَجَدَكَ ضَالًّا فَهَدَىٰ
And find you in want and make you to be free from want?
ووجدك عائلا فأغنى
وَوَجَدَكَ عَائِلًا فَأَغْنَىٰ
Therefore, as for the orphan, do not oppress (him).
فأما اليتيم فلا تقهر
فَأَمَّا الْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ
And as for him who asks, do not chide (him),
وأما السائل فلا تنهر
وَأَمَّا السَّائِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ
And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce (it).
وأما بنعمة ربك فحدث
وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ
