Surah “The Morning Hours, The Early Hours, Morning Bright”

as rendered by Yusuf Ali (Saudi Rev. 1985) — 11 verses

By the Glorious Morning Light
And by the Night when it is still,
Thy Guardian-Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor is He displeased
And verily the Hereafter will be better for thee than the present
And soon will thy Guardian-Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt be well-pleased
Did He not find thee an orphan and give thee shelter (and care)
And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance
And He found thee in need, and made thee independent
Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness
Nor repulse the petitioner (unheard)
But the bounty of the Lord - rehearse and proclaim
