By the morning brightness

Wadduha

And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,

Wallayli itha saja

Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muḥammad], nor has He detested [you].

Ma waddaAAaka rabbuka wama qala

And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life].

Walal-akhiratu khayrun laka minaal-oola

And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied.

Walasawfa yuAAteeka rabbuka fatarda

Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge?

Alam yajidka yateeman faawa

And He found you lost and guided [you],

Wawajadaka dallan fahada

And He found you poor and made [you] self-sufficient.

Wawajadaka AAa-ilan faaghna

So as for the orphan, do not oppress [him].

Faamma alyateema fala taqhar

And as for the petitioner, do not repel [him].

Waamma assa-ila falatanhar

But as for the favor of your Lord, report [it].

Waamma biniAAmati rabbika fahaddith
