Chapter 93, 11 verses
By the morning brightness
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the morning hours
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والضحى
And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,
And by the night when it is stillest,
والليل إذا سجى
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
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
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
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
And He found you lost and guided [you],
Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee) ?
ووجدك ضالا فهدى
And He found you poor and made [you] self - sufficient.
Did He not find thee destitute and enrich (thee) ?
ووجدك عائلا فأغنى
So as for the orphan, do not oppress [him].
Therefor the orphan oppress not,
فأما اليتيم فلا تقهر
And as for the petitioner, do not repel [him].
Therefor the beggar drive not away,
وأما السائل فلا تنهر
But as for the favor of your Lord, report [it].
Therefor of the bounty of thy Lord be thy discourse.
وأما بنعمة ربك فحدث
