The Forenoon (Al-Duhaa)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
I swear by the early hours of the day, 1 and by the night when it darkens, 2 Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you]. 3 for, indeed, the life to come will be better for thee than this earlier part [of thy life]! 4 And presently thy Lord shall give unto thee so that thou shalt be well-pleased. 5 Did He not find you (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) an orphan and gave you a refuge? 6 Did He not find you wandering, and give you guidance? 7 And found thee in want, and given thee sufficiency? 8 Therefore, be not harsh with the orphan; 9 nor drive away the one who asks. 10 And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce (it). 11
