مصحف الثريا

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ وَٱلضُّحَىٰ ۝١

CONSIDER the bright morning hours,

وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ ۝٢

and the night when it grows still and dark.

مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ ۝۳

Thy Sustainer has not forsaken thee, nor does He scorn thee:

وَلَلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌۭ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ ۝٤

for, indeed, the life to come will be better for thee than this earlier part [of thy life]!

وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰٓ ۝٥

And, indeed, in time will thy Sustainer grant thee [what thy heart desires], and thou shalt be well-pleased.

أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًۭا فَـَٔاوَىٰ ۝٦

Has He not found thee an orphan, and given thee shelter?

وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّۭا فَهَدَىٰ ۝۷

And found thee lost on thy way, and guided thee?

وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلًۭا فَأَغْنَىٰ ۝۸

And found thee in want, and given thee sufficiency?

فَأَمَّا ٱلْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ ۝۹

Therefore, the orphan shalt thou never wrong,

وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ ۝١۰

and him that seeks [thy] help shalt thou never chide,

وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ ۝١١

and of thy Sustainer's blessings shalt thou [ever] speak.
