The Forenoon (Al-Duhaa)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By the glorious morning light; 1 and by the night when it covers, 2 Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you]. 3 and the Last shall be better for thee than the First. 4 And verily thy Lord will give unto thee so that thou wilt be content. 5 Has He not found thee an orphan, and given thee shelter? 6 Did He not find you wandering, and give you guidance? 7 And He found you poor, and made you rich (selfsufficient with selfcontentment, etc.)? 8 Therefore do not treat the orphan with harshness, 9 Nor repulse the petitioner (unheard); 10 and proclaim the bounties of your Lord. 11
