The Morning Hours11 ayahsMeccan

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

وَٱلضُّحَىٰ﴿١

1By the morning brightness

وَٱلَّيۡلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ﴿٢

2And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,[1941]

مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ﴿٣

3Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muḥammad], nor has He detested [you].

وَلَلۡأٓخِرَةُ خَيۡرٞ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلۡأُولَىٰ﴿٤

4And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life].

وَلَسَوۡفَ يُعۡطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرۡضَىٰٓ﴿٥

5And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied.

أَلَمۡ يَجِدۡكَ يَتِيمٗا فَـَٔاوَىٰ﴿٦

6Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge?

وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلّٗا فَهَدَىٰ﴿٧

7And He found you lost and guided [you],

وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلٗا فَأَغۡنَىٰ﴿٨

8And He found you poor and made [you] self-sufficient.

فَأَمَّا ٱلۡيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقۡهَرۡ﴿٩

9So as for the orphan, do not oppress [him].

وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنۡهَرۡ﴿١٠

10And as for the petitioner,[1942] do not repel [him].

وَأَمَّا بِنِعۡمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثۡ﴿١١

11But as for the favor of your Lord, report [it].
