The Forenoon (Al-Duhaa)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
I CALL TO witness the early hours of morning, 1 and the brooding night! 2 Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you]. 3 And the Hereafter is indeed better unto thee than the life present. 4 And verily, your Lord will give you (all i.e. good) so that you shall be well-pleased. 5 Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge? 6 And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance. 7 And found thee in want, and given thee sufficiency? 8 Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness, 9 And do not rebuke the beggar. 10 and as for thy Lord's blessing, declare it. 11
