Surah The morning hours [Ad-Dhuha] Ayah 11 Location Maccah Number 93

وَٱلضُّحَىٰ ﴿١﴾

By oath of the late morning,

وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ ﴿٢﴾

And by oath of the night when it covers,

مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ ﴿٣﴾

Your Lord has not forsaken you nor does He dislike you!

وَلَلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌۭ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ ﴿٤﴾

And indeed the latter is better for you than the former.

وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰٓ ﴿٥﴾

And indeed your Lord will soon give you so much that you will be pleased. (Allah seeks to please the Holy Prophet – peace and blessings be upon him.)

أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًۭا فَـَٔاوَىٰ ﴿٦﴾

Did He not find you an orphan, so provided you shelter?

وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّۭا فَهَدَىٰ ﴿٧﴾

And found you deeply engrossed in His love, so directed you?

وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلًۭا فَأَغْنَىٰ ﴿٨﴾

And found you in need, so made you prosperous?

فَأَمَّا ٱلْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ ﴿٩﴾

Therefore do not oppress the orphan.

وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ ﴿١٠﴾

And do not rebuke the beggar.

وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ ﴿١١﴾

And abundantly proclaim the favours of your Lord.
