The Forenoon (Al-Duhaa)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
CONSIDER the bright morning hours, 1 and by the calm of night, 2 Your Lord has not forsaken you, nor has He become displeased, 3 The reward in the next life will certainly be better for you than worldly gains. 4 And soon will thy Guardian-Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt be well-pleased. 5 Did He not find you an orphan and take care of you? 6 Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee)? 7 And He found you poor, and made you rich (selfsufficient with selfcontentment, etc.)? 8 Therefore, as for the orphan, do not oppress (him). 9 And do not rebuke the beggar. 10 Therefor of the bounty of thy Lord be thy discourse. 11
