Chapter 93, 11 verses
By the Glorious Morning Light,
Bei der Morgenhelle
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. By the forenoon (after sunrise).
And by the Night when it is still, -
und der Nacht, wenn sie (alles) umhüllt!
By the night when it darkens (and stand still).
Thy Guardian - Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor is He displeased.
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.
And verily the Hereafter will be better for thee than the present.
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 soon will thy Guardian - Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt be well - pleased.
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.
Did He not find thee an orphan and give thee shelter (and care)?
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?
And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance.
und dich irregehend gefunden und dann rechtgeleitet
And He found you unaware (of the Qur'an, its laws, and Prophethood) and guided you?
And He found thee in need, and made thee independent.
und dich arm gefunden und dann reich gemacht?
And He found you poor and made you rich (self-sufficient with self-contentment)?
Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness,
Was nun die Waise angeht, so unterjoche (sie) nicht,
Therefore, treat not the orphan with oppression.
Nor repulse the petitioner (unheard);
und was den Bettler angeht, so fahre (ihn) nicht an,
And repulse not the beggar.
But the bounty of the Lord - rehearse and proclaim!
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).
