The Forenoon (Al-Duhaa)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By the morning brightness 1 and the brooding night! 2 Your Lord has not forsaken you nor does He dislike you! 3 and the Last shall be better for thee than the First. 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 shelter? 6 Did He not find you a wanderer so He guided you? 7 And He found you poor and made [you] self-sufficient. 8 Therefore, be not harsh with the orphan; 9 and as for the beggar, scold him not; 10 and proclaim the bounties of your Lord. 11
