الضحى

وَٱلضُّحَىٰ

"By the morning brightness"

وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ

"And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,1"

مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ

"Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muḥammad], nor has He detested [you]."

وَلَلْـَٔاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ

"And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life]."

وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰٓ

"And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied."

أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًا فَـَٔاوَىٰ

"Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge?"

وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّا فَهَدَىٰ

"And He found you lost and guided [you],"

وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلًا فَأَغْنَىٰ

"And He found you poor and made [you] self-sufficient."

فَأَمَّا ٱلْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ

"So as for the orphan, do not oppress [him]."

وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ

"And as for the petitioner,1 do not repel [him]."

وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ

"But as for the favor of your Lord, report [it]."
