The Forenoon (Al-Duhaa)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
CONSIDER the bright morning hours, 1 By the night when it darkeneth, 2 Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee nor doth He hate thee, 3 And indeed the latter is better for you than the former. 4 Verily your Lord will soon give you so amply that you will be well-pleased. 5 Did He not find you orphaned and shelter you? 6 And find you lost (that is, unrecognized by men) and guide (them to you)? 7 And He found you poor and made [you] self-sufficient. 8 As for the orphan, do not oppress him, 9 and chide not him who asks, 10 But tell of the favors of your Lord! 11
