The Forenoon (Al-Duhaa)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
CONSIDER the bright morning hours, 1 And the night when it covers with darkness. 2 Thy Lord has neither forsaken thee nor hates thee 3 and the Hereafter will indeed be better for you than the present life; 4 And presently thy Lord shall give unto thee so that thou shalt be well-pleased. 5 Did He not find thee an orphan, and shelter thee? 6 And He found you unaware (of the Quran, its legal laws, and Prophethood, etc.) and guided you? 7 And He found thee in need, and made thee independent. 8 Wherefore as to the orphan, be thou not unto him overbearing. 9 And do not rebuke the beggar. 10 And as to the favour of thine Lord, discourse thou thereof. 11
