بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

1

وَٱلضُّحَىٰ ﴿1﴾

آفتاب کی روشنی کی قسم

2

وَٱلَّيۡلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ ﴿2﴾

اور رات (کی تاریکی) کی جب چھا جائے

3

مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ ﴿3﴾

کہ (اے محمدﷺ) تمہارے پروردگار نے نہ تو تم کو چھوڑا اور نہ (تم سے) ناراض ہوا

4

وَلَلۡأٓخِرَةُ خَيۡرࣱ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلۡأُولَىٰ ﴿4﴾

اور آخرت تمہارے لیے پہلی (حالت یعنی دنیا) سے کہیں بہتر ہے

5

وَلَسَوۡفَ يُعۡطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرۡضَىٰٓ ﴿5﴾

اور تمہیں پروردگار عنقریب وہ کچھ عطا فرمائے گا کہ تم خوش ہو جاؤ گے

6

أَلَمۡ يَجِدۡكَ يَتِيمࣰ ا فَـَٔاوَىٰ ﴿6﴾

بھلا اس نے تمہیں یتیم پا کر جگہ نہیں دی؟ (بےشک دی)

7

وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلࣰّ ا فَهَدَىٰ ﴿7﴾

اور رستے سے ناواقف دیکھا تو رستہ دکھایا

8

وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلࣰ ا فَأَغۡنَىٰ ﴿8﴾

اور تنگ دست پایا تو غنی کر دیا

9

فَأَمَّا ٱلۡيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقۡهَرۡ ﴿9﴾

تو تم بھی یتیم پر ستم نہ کرنا

10

وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنۡهَرۡ ﴿10﴾

اور مانگنے والے کو جھڑکی نہ دینا

11

وَأَمَّا بِنِعۡمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثۡ ﴿11﴾

اور اپنے پروردگار کی نعمتوں کا بیان کرتے رہنا
