وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ
And keep recounting the favours of your Lord.
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالضُّحَىٰ
I CALL TO witness the early hours of morning,
وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ
And the night when dark and still,
مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ
Your Lord has neither left you, nor despises you.
وَلَلْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَكَ مِنَ الْأُولَىٰ
What is to come is better for you than what has gone before;
وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰ
For your Lord will certainly give you, and you will be content.
أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًا فَآوَىٰ
Did He not find you an orphan and take care of you?
وَوَجَدَكَ ضَالًّا فَهَدَىٰ
Did He not find you perplexed, and show you the way?
وَوَجَدَكَ عَائِلًا فَأَغْنَىٰ
Did He not find you poor and enrich you?
فَأَمَّا الْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ
So do not oppress the orphan,
وَأَمَّا السَّائِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ
And do not drive the beggar away,
