Bei der Morgenhelle
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,
und der Nacht, wenn sie (alles) umhüllt!
By the night when it darkens (and stand still).
And the night when it covers with darkness.
Dein Herr hat sich weder von dir verabschiedet noch haßt Er (dich).
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,
Und das Jenseits ist wahrlich besser für dich als das Diesseits.
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.
Und dein Herr wird dir wahrlich geben, und dann wirst du zufrieden sein.
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.
Hat Er dich nicht als Waise gefunden und (dir) dann Zuflucht verschafft
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?
und dich irregehend gefunden und dann rechtgeleitet
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)?
und dich arm gefunden und dann reich gemacht?
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?
Was nun die Waise angeht, so unterjoche (sie) nicht,
Therefore, treat not the orphan with oppression.
Therefore, as for the orphan, do not oppress (him).
und was den Bettler angeht, so fahre (ihn) nicht an,
And repulse not the beggar.
And as for him who asks, do not chide (him),
und was die Gunst deines Herrn angeht, so erzähle (davon).
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).
