English Translation by
Abdullah Yusuf Ali




22.
Then, when he turned his face towards (the land of) Madyan, he said: "I
do hope that my Lord will show me the smooth and straight Path."





23. And when he arrived at the watering (place) in Madyan, he found
there a group of men watering (their flocks), and besides them he found
two women who were keeping back (their flocks). He said: "What is the
matter with you?" They said: "We cannot water (our flocks) until the
shepherds take back (their flocks): And our father is a very old man."





24. So he watered (their flocks) for them; then he turned back to the
shade, and said:"O my Lord! truly am I in (desperate) need of any good
that Thou dost send me!"





25. Afterwards one of the (damsels) came (back) to him, walking
bashfully. She said: "My father invites thee that he may reward thee
for having watered (our flocks) for us." So when he came to him and
narrated the story, he said: "Fear thou not: (well) hast thou escaped
from unjust people.."





26. Said one of the (damsels): "O my (dear) father! engage him on
wages: truly the best of men for thee to employ is the (man) who is
strong and trusty".





27. He said: "I intend to wed one of these my daughters to thee, on
condition that thou serve me for eight years; but if thou complete ten
years, it will be (grace) from thee. But I intend not to place thee
under a difficulty: thou wilt find me, indeed, if Allah wills, one of
the righteous."





28. He said: "Be that (the agreement) between me and thee: whichever of
the two terms I fulfil, let there be no ill-will to me. Be Allah a
witness to what we say."

(Surah An-Naml, Chapter 27, Verse 19)

"O my Lord!
so order me that I may be grateful for Thy favours,
which thou hast bestowed on me and on my
parents,
and that I may work the righteousness
that will please Thee:
And admit me, by Thy Grace,
to the ranks of Thy righteous Servants."




Aameen, Ya Rabb-ul-Aalameen!
