بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالضُّحَىٰ

By the morning brightness,

وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ

By the night when it darkeneth,

مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ

Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor is He displeased.

وَلَلْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَكَ مِنَ الْأُولَىٰ

And the Hereafter is indeed better Unto thee than the life present.

وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰ

And presently thy Lord shall give Unto thee so that thou shalt be be well-pleased.

أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًا فَآوَىٰ

Found He not thee an orphan, so He sheltered thee?

وَوَجَدَكَ ضَالًّا فَهَدَىٰ

And He found thee wandering, so He guided thee,

وَوَجَدَكَ عَائِلًا فَأَغْنَىٰ

And He found thee destitute, so He enriched thee.

فَأَمَّا الْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ

Wherefore as to the orphan, be thou not Unto him overbearing.

وَأَمَّا السَّائِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ

And as to the beggar, chide thou him not.

وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ

And as to the favour of thine Lord discourse thou thereof.
