Surah Al Duha

وَٱلضُّحَىٰ 

By the Glorious Morning Light.

وَٱلَّيۡلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ 

And by the Night when it is still --

مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ 

The guardian-Lord Hath not forsaken thee, Nor is He displeased.

وَلَلۡأَخِرَةُ خَيۡرٌ۬ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلۡأُولَىٰ

And verily the hereafter will be better for thee than the present.

وَلَسَوۡفَ يُعۡطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرۡضَىٰٓ 

And soon will thy Guardian-Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt be well-pleased.

أَلَمۡ يَجِدۡكَ يَتِيمً۬ا فَـَٔاوَىٰ 

Did He not find thee an orphan and give thee shelter (and care)?

وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلاًّ۬ فَهَدَىٰ 

And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance.

وَوَجَدَكَ عَآٮِٕلاً۬ فَأَغۡنَىٰ 

And He found thee in need, and made thee independent.

فَأَمَّا ٱلۡيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقۡهَرۡ

Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness,

وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآٮِٕلَ فَلَا تَنۡہَرۡ 

Nor repulse the petitioner (Unheard);

وَأَمَّا بِنِعۡمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثۡ 

But the Bounty of thy Lord Rehearse and proclaim!
