The Forenoon (Al-Duhaa)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
I swear by the early hours of the day, 1 and by the night when it darkens, 2 Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee nor doth He hate thee, 3 The reward in the next life will certainly be better for you than worldly gains. 4 For your Lord will certainly give you, and you will be content. 5 Did He not find thee an orphan, and shelter thee? 6 And found you deeply engrossed in His love, so directed you? 7 And He found you poor and made [you] self-sufficient. 8 Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness, 9 And as for the petitioner, do not repel [him]. 10 and proclaim the bounty of your Lord. 11
