2] and [by] the night when it is Hill — or [saja can mean] ‘when it envelops [all] in its darkness’. [93:3] Your Lord has neither forsaken you.

[93:4] And verily the Hereafter shall be better for you, by virtue of the honours awaiting you thereat, than thefirH [life], this world.

[93:5] And verily your Lord shall give you, in the Hereafter, of good things, a bounteous gift, and you shall be satisfied, with it — and so the Prophet (s) said, ‘In that case, I shall not be satisfied if a single person from among my community remains in the Fire’ (the re^onse to the oath terminates here, with two affirmations and two negations).

[93:7] And did He not find you erring, from the [revealed] Law which you [now] follow, and guided you?, that is, and then guided you to it. [93:8] And did He not find you needy, poor, and enrich you?, [and] made you content with the ^Jjoils and other things which He gave you — in a hadith [it is stated], ‘Wealth comes not from the proliferation of transient [worldly] goods, but wealth comes from the contentedness of the soul’. [93:9] So, as for the orphan, do not oppress [him], by appropri…
