Chapter 93, 11 verses
By the morning brightness
Waaldduha
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the morning hours
And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,
Waallayli itha saja
And by the night when it is stillest,
Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you].
Ma waddaAAaka rabbuka wama qala
Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee nor doth He hate thee,
And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life].

And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied.
Walasawfa yuAAteeka rabbuka fatarda
And verily thy Lord will give unto thee so that thou wilt be content.
Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge?
Alam yajidka yateeman faawa
Did He not find thee an orphan and protect (thee) ?
And He found you lost and guided [you],
Wawajadaka dallan fahada
Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee) ?
And He found you poor and made [you] self - sufficient.
Wawajadaka AAailan faaghna
Did He not find thee destitute and enrich (thee) ?
So as for the orphan, do not oppress [him].
Faamma alyateema fala taqhar
Therefor the orphan oppress not,
And as for the petitioner, do not repel [him].
Waamma alssaila fala tanhar
Therefor the beggar drive not away,
But as for the favor of your Lord, report [it].
