The Forenoon (Al-Duhaa)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
I CALL TO witness the early hours of morning, 1 And by the Night when it is still,- 2 Your Lord has not forsaken you nor does He dislike you! 3 And surely what comes after is better for you than that which has gone before. 4 And indeed your Lord will soon give you so much that you will be pleased. (Allah seeks to please the Holy Prophet – peace and blessings be upon him.) 5 Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge? 6 Did He not find you a wanderer so He guided you? 7 Did He not find you poor and enrich you? 8 So do not oppress the orphan, 9 and him that seeks [thy] help shalt thou never chide, 10 And as to the favour of thine Lord, discourse thou thereof. 11
