Quraish or The Quraish, (Custodians of the Ka’ba).

In the name of God, Most Gracious,
Most Merciful.

(Of security and safeguard
Enjoyed) by the Quraish,

2. Their covenants (covering) journeys
By winter and summer,—

Of this House

With food against hunger,
And with security
Against fear (of danger).
