سورة الضحى


1

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ وَٱلضُّحَىٰ

Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem
Wad duhaa

By the morning brightness

2

وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ

Wal laili iza sajaa

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

3

مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ

Ma wad da'aka rabbuka wa ma qalaa

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

4

وَلَلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌۭ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ

Walal-aakhiratu khairul laka minal-oola

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

5

وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰٓ

Wa la sawfa y'uteeka rabbuka fatarda

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

6

أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًۭا فَـَٔاوَىٰ

Alam ya jidka yateeman fa aawaa

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

7

وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّۭا فَهَدَىٰ

Wa wa jadaka daal lan fahada

And He found you lost and guided [you],

8

وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلًۭا فَأَغْنَىٰ

Wa wa jadaka 'aa-ilan fa aghnaa

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

9

فَأَمَّا ٱلْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ

Fa am mal yateema fala taqhar

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

10

وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ

Wa am mas saa-ila fala tanhar

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

11

وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ

Wa amma bi ni'mati rabbika fahad dith

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