Ad-Dhuhaa

The Morning Hours

Surah 93,

Meccan

93:1
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ وَٱلضُّحَىٰ

CONSIDER the bright morning hours,

93:2
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ

and the night when it grows still and dark.

93:3
مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ

Thy Sustainer has not forsaken thee, nor does He scorn thee:

93:4
وَلَلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌۭ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ

for, indeed, the life to come will be better for thee than this earlier part [of thy life]!

93:5
وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰٓ

And, indeed, in time will thy Sustainer grant thee [what thy heart desires], and thou shalt be well-pleased.

93:6
أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًۭا فَـَٔاوَىٰ

Has He not found thee an orphan, and given thee shelter?

93:7
وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّۭا فَهَدَىٰ

And found thee lost on thy way, and guided thee?

93:8
وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلًۭا فَأَغْنَىٰ

And found thee in want, and given thee sufficiency?

93:9
فَأَمَّا ٱلْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ

Therefore, the orphan shalt thou never wrong,

93:10
وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ

and him that seeks [thy] help shalt thou never chide,

93:11
وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ

and of thy Sustainer's blessings shalt thou [ever] speak.
