Chapter 93, 11 verses
I swear by the early hours of the day,
Waaldduha
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالضُّحَىٰ
By the morning brightness
And the night when it covers with darkness.
Waallayli itha saja
وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ
And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,
Your Lord has not forsaken you, nor has He become displeased,
Ma waddaAAaka rabbuka wama qala
مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ
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.
Walalakhiratu khayrun laka mina aloola
وَلَلْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَّكَ مِنَ الْأُولَىٰ
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.
Walasawfa yuAAteeka rabbuka fatarda
وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰ
And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied.
Did He not find you an orphan and give you shelter?
Alam yajidka yateeman faawa
أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًا فَآوَىٰ
Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge?
And find you lost (that is, unrecognized by men) and guide (them to you)?
Wawajadaka dallan fahada
وَوَجَدَكَ ضَالًّا فَهَدَىٰ
And He found you lost and guided [you],
And find you in want and make you to be free from want?
Wawajadaka AAailan faaghna
وَوَجَدَكَ عَائِلًا فَأَغْنَىٰ
And He found you poor and made [you] self - sufficient.
Therefore, as for the orphan, do not oppress (him).
Faamma alyateema fala taqhar
فَأَمَّا الْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ
So as for the orphan, do not oppress [him].
And as for him who asks, do not chide (him),
Waamma alssaila fala tanhar
وَأَمَّا السَّائِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ
And as for the petitioner, do not repel [him].
And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce (it).
Waamma biniAAmati rabbika fahaddith
وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ
But as for the favor of your Lord, report [it].
