‘Your memory shines in me’ The text from The Holy Qur’an is Surah 93.1–93.11

Sunrise In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful 93:1 By the rising of the sun, and by the fall of the night, your Lord has not forsaken you, nor has He turned away from you. The life to come holds a richer prize for you than this present life. You shall be gratified with what your Lord will give you 93:6 Did he not find you an orphan and give you shelter? Did he not find you lost and guide you? Did he not find you in need and make you content? 93:11 Therefore do not wrong the orphan, nor chide away the beggar. But show the bounty of your God. ❧ ❧ ❧ ❧ ❧ ❧ ❧ ❧ ❧ ❧ ❧
