The Forenoon (Al-Duhaa)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
I CALL TO witness the early hours of morning, 1 and by the night when it covers the world with peace: 2 Your Lord (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) has neither forsaken you nor hated you. 3 And indeed the Hereafter is better for you than the present (life of this world). 4 And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied. 5 Found He not thee an orphan, so He sheltered thee? 6 And found you deeply engrossed in His love, so directed you? 7 And He found you poor and made [you] self-sufficient. 8 Therefore do not treat the orphan with harshness, 9 Nor repulse the petitioner (unheard); 10 and proclaim the bounty of your Lord. 11
