The Forenoon (Al-Duhaa)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
CONSIDER the bright morning hours, 1 By the night when it darkeneth, 2 Your Lord has neither left you, nor despises you. 3 What is to come is better for you than what has gone before; 4 Thy Lord shall give thee, and thou shalt be satisfied. 5 Did He not find thee an orphan and protect (thee)? 6 And He found you unaware (of the Quran, its legal laws, and Prophethood, etc.) and guided you? 7 Did He not find you in want, and make you free from want? 8 Therefore do not oppress the orphan. 9 and chide not him who asks, 10 And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce (it). 11
