Chapter 93, 11 verses
Waaldduha
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. By the forenoon (after sunrise).
I swear by the early hours of the day,
وَٱلضُّحَىٰ
Waallayli itha saja
By the night when it darkens (and stand still).
And the night when it covers with darkness.
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ
Ma waddaAAaka rabbuka wama qala
Your Lord (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) has neither forsaken you nor hates you.
Your Lord has not forsaken you, nor has He become displeased,
مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ
Walalakhiratu khayrun laka mina aloola
And indeed the Hereafter is better for you than the present (life of this world).
And surely what comes after is better for you than that which has gone before.
وَلَلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ
Walasawfa yuAAteeka rabbuka fatarda
And verily, your Lord will give you (all good) so that you shall be well-pleased.
And soon will your Lord give you so that you shall be well pleased.
وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰٓ
Alam yajidka yateeman faawa
Did He not find you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) an orphan and gave you a refuge?
Did He not find you an orphan and give you shelter?
أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًا فَـَٔاوَىٰ
Wawajadaka dallan fahada
And He found you unaware (of the Qur'an, its laws, and Prophethood) and guided you?
And find you lost (that is, unrecognized by men) and guide (them to you)?
وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّا فَهَدَىٰ
Wawajadaka AAailan faaghna
And He found you poor and made you rich (self-sufficient with self-contentment)?
And find you in want and make you to be free from want?
وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلًا فَأَغْنَىٰ
Faamma alyateema fala taqhar
Therefore, treat not the orphan with oppression.
Therefore, as for the orphan, do not oppress (him).
فَأَمَّا ٱلْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ
Waamma alssaila fala tanhar
And repulse not the beggar.
And as for him who asks, do not chide (him),
وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ
Waamma biniAAmati rabbika fahaddith
And proclaim the Grace of your Lord (i.e. the Prophethood and all other Graces).
And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce (it).
وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ
