Chapter 93, 11 verses
I swear by the early hours of the day,
وَٱلضُّحَىٰ
Waaldduha
And the night when it covers with darkness.
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ
Waallayli itha saja
Your Lord has not forsaken you, nor has He become displeased,
مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ
Ma waddaAAaka rabbuka wama qala
And surely what comes after is better for you than that which has gone before.
وَلَلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ
Walalakhiratu khayrun laka mina aloola
And soon will your Lord give you so that you shall be well pleased.
وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰٓ
Walasawfa yuAAteeka rabbuka fatarda
Did He not find you an orphan and give you shelter?
أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًا فَـَٔاوَىٰ
Alam yajidka yateeman faawa
And find you lost (that is, unrecognized by men) and guide (them to you)?
وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّا فَهَدَىٰ
Wawajadaka dallan fahada
And find you in want and make you to be free from want?
وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلًا فَأَغْنَىٰ
Wawajadaka AAailan faaghna
Therefore, as for the orphan, do not oppress (him).
فَأَمَّا ٱلْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ
Faamma alyateema fala taqhar
And as for him who asks, do not chide (him),
وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ
Waamma alssaila fala tanhar
And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce (it).
وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ
Waamma biniAAmati rabbika fahaddith
