93. Ad-Duhaa

By the morning brightness

By the glorious morning light

(O Sincere human being!) Consider the Daylight

And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,1

and by the night when it darkens

And the night when it is still. (There is light at the end of the tunnel and with hardship is ease, like there is Daybreak after the Night (89:1), (92)

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

your Lord has not forsaken you, nor is He displeased with you

Your Lord has never forsaken you, nor did He ever forget you

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

and the Hereafter will indeed be better for you than the present life

And verily, being far-sighted is better for you than being short-sighted

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

soon you will be gratified with what your Lord will give you

And verily, soon will your Lord give unto you so that you will be well-pleased

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

Did He not find you orphaned and shelter you

Did He not find you in a lonely state, and give you an environment

And He found you lost and guided [you],

Did He not find you wandering, and give you guidance

And He found you looking for guidance, and showed you the way. ('Dhall' = Wandering = Looking for guidance = Straying)

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

Did He not find you in want, and make you free from want

And He found you dependent, and made you independent. (Infancy to youth)

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

Therefore do not treat the orphan with harshness

Now you shall not treat harshly any orphan, widow, the helpless and he who feels left alone in the society

And as for the petitioner,1 do not repel [him].

and do not chide the one who asks for help

And never shall you repulse him who seeks help

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

but proclaim the blessings of your Lord

But the blessings of your Lord you shall speak of by sharing. ('Haddith' = Convey and share what you have learned and gained)
