Surah 93. Adh-Dhuha

1

CONSIDER the bright morning hours,

2

and the night when it grows still and dark.1

3

Thy Sustainer has not forsaken thee, nor does He scorn thee:2

4

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

5

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

6

Has He not found thee an orphan, and given thee shelter?3

7

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

8

And found thee in want, and given thee sufficiency?

9

Therefore, the orphan shalt thou never wrong,

10

and him that seeks [thy] help shalt thou never chide,4

11

and of thy Sustainer’s blessings shalt thou [ever] speak.5
