Chapter 93, 11 verses
By the Glorious Morning Light,
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the morning hours
By the morning brightness
And by the Night when it is still, -
And by the night when it is stillest,
And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,
Thy Guardian - Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor is He displeased.
Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee nor doth He hate thee,
Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you].
And verily the Hereafter will be better for thee than the present.
And verily the latter portion will be better for thee than the former,
And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life].
And soon will thy Guardian - Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt be well - pleased.
And verily thy Lord will give unto thee so that thou wilt be content.
And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied.
Did He not find thee an orphan and give thee shelter (and care)?
Did He not find thee an orphan and protect (thee) ?
Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge?
And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance.
Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee) ?
And He found you lost and guided [you],
And He found thee in need, and made thee independent.
Did He not find thee destitute and enrich (thee) ?
And He found you poor and made [you] self - sufficient.
Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness,
Therefor the orphan oppress not,
So as for the orphan, do not oppress [him].
Nor repulse the petitioner (unheard);
Therefor the beggar drive not away,
And as for the petitioner, do not repel [him].
But the bounty of the Lord - rehearse and proclaim!
Therefor of the bounty of thy Lord be thy discourse.
But as for the favor of your Lord, report [it].
