The Forenoon (Al-Duhaa)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
By the morning hours 1 and by the night when it darkens, 2 Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee nor doth He hate thee, 3 And surely what comes after is better for you than that which has gone before. 4 Thy Lord shall give thee, and thou shalt be satisfied. 5 Has He not found thee an orphan, and given thee shelter? 6 And He found you unaware (of the Quran, its legal laws, and Prophethood, etc.) and guided you? 7 Did He not find thee needy, and suffice thee? 8 Therefore, be not harsh with the orphan; 9 and chide not him who asks, 10 and proclaim the bounty of your Lord. 11
