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

وَٱلضُّحَىٰ ﴿١﴾

By the bright forenoon,

وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ ﴿٢﴾

and by the night when it covers the world with peace:

مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ ﴿٣﴾

(O Prophet), your Lord has neither forsaken you, nor is He displeased.

وَلَلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌۭ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ ﴿٤﴾

Indeed what is to come will be better for you than what has gone by.

وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰٓ ﴿٥﴾

Verily your Lord will soon give you so amply that you will be well-pleased.

أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًۭا فَـَٔاوَىٰ ﴿٦﴾

Did He not find you an orphan and then gave you shelter?

وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّۭا فَهَدَىٰ ﴿٧﴾

Did He not find you unaware of the Right Way, and then directed you to it?

وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلًۭا فَأَغْنَىٰ ﴿٨﴾

And did He not find you in want, and then enriched you?

فَأَمَّا ٱلْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ ﴿٩﴾

Therefore, be not harsh with the orphan;

وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ ﴿١٠﴾

and chide not him who asks,

وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ ﴿١١﴾

and proclaim the bounty of your Lord.
