“Wala sawfa yutika rabbuka fatarda” means that Allah will give His beloved Messenger Muhammad (SAW) what he wants and more than he wants, He will be Merciful with his nation, will give him Kawthar river in honor and glory to him.
ِAnd from the grace of Allah over His Messenger
Muhammad (SAW) that He harbored him after being an Orphan.
We say that he was an Orphan because his father died when his mother was pregnant with him, then when he was 6 years old his mother died. Finally, his grandfather took care of him.
Our beloved Prophet (SAW) was poor and Allah enriched him.
