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