আল দ্বোহা

1 By the morning brightness

1 By the Glorious Morning Light,

2 And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,

2 And by the Night when it is still, -

3 Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you].

3 Thy Guardian - Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor is He displeased.

4 And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life].

4 And verily the Hereafter will be better for thee than the present.

5 And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied.

5 And soon will thy Guardian - Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt be well - pleased.

6 Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge?

6 Did He not find thee an orphan and give thee shelter (and care)?

7 And He found you lost and guided [you],

7 And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance.

8 And He found you poor and made [you] self - sufficient.

8 And He found thee in need, and made thee independent.

9 So as for the orphan, do not oppress [him].

9 Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness,

10 And as for the petitioner, do not repel [him].

10 Nor repulse the petitioner (unheard);

11 But as for the favor of your Lord, report [it].

11 But the bounty of the Lord - rehearse and proclaim!
