بِسمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحمـٰنِ الرَّحيمِ وَالضُّحىٰ

By the morning brightness

وَاللَّيلِ إِذا سَجىٰ

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

ما وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَما قَلىٰ

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

وَلَلآخِرَةُ خَيرٌ لَكَ مِنَ الأولىٰ

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

أَلَم يَجِدكَ يَتيمًا فَآوىٰ

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

وَوَجَدَكَ ضالًّا فَهَدىٰ

And He found you lost and guided [you],

وَوَجَدَكَ عائِلًا فَأَغنىٰ

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

فَأَمَّا اليَتيمَ فَلا تَقهَر

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

وَأَمَّا السّائِلَ فَلا تَنهَر

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