Surah 93. Ad-Dhuha (The Morning Hours, Morning Bright) [Makka]

Surah 93. Ad-Dhuha (The Morning Hours, Morning Bright) [Makka]

93:1 By the morning hours

93:2 And by the night when it is stillest,

93:3 Thy Lord hath not forsaken thee nor doth He hate thee,

93:4 And verily the latter portion will be better for thee than the former,

93:5 And verily thy Lord will give unto thee so that thou wilt be content.

93:6 Did He not find thee an orphan and protect (thee)?

93:7 Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee)?

93:8 Did He not find thee destitute and enrich (thee)?

93:9 Therefor the orphan oppress not,

93:10 Therefor the beggar drive not away,

93:11 Therefor of the bounty of thy Lord be thy discourse.
