The Forenoon (Al-Duhaa)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
I swear by the early hours of the day, 1 And the night when dark and still, 2 Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor is He displeased. 3 Indeed what is to come will be better for you than what has gone by. 4 And indeed, in time will thy Sustainer grant thee [what thy heart desires,] and thou shalt be well-pleased. 5 Found He not thee an orphan, so He sheltered thee? 6 And find you lost (that is, unrecognized by men) and guide (them to you)? 7 And He found thee destitute, so He enriched thee. 8 Therefore, the orphan shalt thou never wrong, 9 and do not reject the beggars 10 and proclaim the bounties of your Lord. 11
