1
I CALL TO witness the early hours of morning,
2
And the night when dark and still,
3
Your Lord has neither left you, nor despises you.
4
What is to come is better for you than what has gone before;
5
For your Lord will certainly give you, and you will be content.
6
Did He not find you an orphan and take care of you?
7
Did He not find you perplexed, and show you the way?
8
Did He not find you poor and enrich you?
9
So do not oppress the orphan,
10
And do not drive the beggar away,
11
And keep recounting the favours of your Lord.
