I swear by the early hours of the day,
By the morning brightness
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the morning hours
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والضحى
وَٱلضُّحَىٰ
Chapter 93, 11 verses
I swear by the early hours of the day,
By the morning brightness
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the morning hours
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والضحى
وَٱلضُّحَىٰ
And the night when it covers with darkness.
And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,
And by the night when it is stillest,
والليل إذا سجى
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ
Your Lord has not forsaken you, nor has He become displeased,
Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you].
Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee nor doth He hate thee,
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.
And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life].
And verily the latter portion will be better for thee than the former,
وللآخرة خير لك من الأولى
وَلَلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ
And soon will your Lord give you so that you shall be well pleased.
And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied.
And verily thy Lord will give unto thee so that thou wilt be content.
ولسوف يعطيك ربك فترضى
وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰٓ
Did He not find you an orphan and give you shelter?
Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge?
Did He not find thee an orphan and protect (thee) ?
ألم يجدك يتيما فآوى
أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًا فَـَٔاوَىٰ
And find you lost (that is, unrecognized by men) and guide (them to you)?
And He found you lost and guided [you],
Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee) ?
ووجدك ضالا فهدى
وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّا فَهَدَىٰ
And find you in want and make you to be free from want?
And He found you poor and made [you] self - sufficient.
Did He not find thee destitute and enrich (thee) ?
ووجدك عائلا فأغنى
وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلًا فَأَغْنَىٰ
Therefore, as for the orphan, do not oppress (him).
So as for the orphan, do not oppress [him].
Therefor the orphan oppress not,
فأما اليتيم فلا تقهر
فَأَمَّا ٱلْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ
And as for him who asks, do not chide (him),
And as for the petitioner, do not repel [him].
Therefor the beggar drive not away,
وأما السائل فلا تنهر
وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ
And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce (it).
But as for the favor of your Lord, report [it].
Therefor of the bounty of thy Lord be thy discourse.
وأما بنعمة ربك فحدث
وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ
