بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

  1. By the morning hours

    وَٱلضُّحَىٰ

  2. And by the night when it is stillest,

    وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ

  3. Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee nor doth He hate thee,

    مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ

  4. And verily the latter portion will be better for thee than the former,

    وَلَلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌۭ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ

  5. And verily thy Lord will give unto thee so that thou wilt be content.

    وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰٓ

  6. Did He not find thee an orphan and protect (thee)?

    أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًۭا فَـَٔاوَىٰ

  7. Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee)?

    وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّۭا فَهَدَىٰ

  8. Did He not find thee destitute and enrich (thee)?

    وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلًۭا فَأَغْنَىٰ

  9. Therefor the orphan oppress not,

    فَأَمَّا ٱلْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ

  10. Therefor the beggar drive not away,

    وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ

  11. Therefor of the bounty of thy Lord be thy discourse.

    وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ
