✦ The Holy Quran ✦
Timeless wisdom and guidance from the Holy Quran. Each verse is a reminder, a comfort, and a light.
وَأمُر أَهلَكَ بِالصَّلوٰةِ وَاصطَبِر عَلَيها ۖ لا نَسـَٔلُكَ رِزقًا ۖ نَحنُ نَرزُقُكَ ۗ وَالعٰقِبَةُ لِلتَّقوىٰ
And enjoin prayer upon your family [and people] and be steadfast therein. We ask you not for provision; We provide for you, and the [best] outcome is for [those of] righteousness
۞ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ يَعلَمُ أَنَّكَ تَقومُ أَدنىٰ مِن ثُلُثَىِ الَّيلِ وَنِصفَهُ وَثُلُثَهُ وَطائِفَةٌ مِنَ الَّذينَ مَعَكَ ۚ وَاللَّهُ يُقَدِّرُ الَّيلَ وَالنَّهارَ ۚ عَلِمَ أَن لَن تُحصوهُ فَتابَ عَلَيكُم ۖ فَاقرَءوا ما تَيَسَّرَ مِنَ القُرءانِ ۚ عَلِمَ أَن سَيَكونُ مِنكُم مَرضىٰ ۙ وَءاخَرونَ يَضرِبونَ فِى الأَرضِ يَبتَغونَ مِن فَضلِ اللَّهِ ۙ وَءاخَرونَ يُقٰتِلونَ فى سَبيلِ اللَّهِ ۖ فَاقرَءوا ما تَيَسَّرَ مِنهُ ۚ وَأَقيمُوا الصَّلوٰةَ وَءاتُوا الزَّكوٰةَ وَأَقرِضُوا اللَّهَ قَرضًا حَسَنًا ۚ وَما تُقَدِّموا لِأَنفُسِكُم مِن خَيرٍ تَجِدوهُ عِندَ اللَّهِ هُوَ خَيرًا وَأَعظَمَ أَجرًا ۚ وَاستَغفِرُوا اللَّهَ ۖ إِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفورٌ رَحيمٌ
Indeed, your Lord knows, [O Muhammad], that you stand [in prayer] almost two thirds of the night or half of it or a third of it, and [so do] a group of those with you. And Allah determines [the extent of] the night and the day. He has known that you [Muslims] will not be able to do it and has turned to you in forgiveness, so recite what is easy [for you] of the Qur'an. He has known that there will be among you those who are ill and others traveling throughout the land seeking [something] of the bounty of Allah and others fighting for the cause of Allah. So recite what is easy from it and establish prayer and give zakah and loan Allah a goodly loan. And whatever good you put forward for yourselves - you will find it with Allah. It is better and greater in reward. And seek forgiveness of Allah. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful
وَمِنَ الَّيلِ فَسَبِّحهُ وَأَدبٰرَ السُّجودِ
And [in part] of the night exalt Him and after prostration
وَالَّذينَ هُم عَلىٰ صَلاتِهِم يُحافِظونَ
And those who [carefully] maintain their prayer
وَاذكُرِ اسمَ رَبِّكَ بُكرَةً وَأَصيلًا
And mention the name of your Lord [in prayer] morning and evening
وَمِنَ الَّيلِ فَاسجُد لَهُ وَسَبِّحهُ لَيلًا طَويلًا
And during the night prostrate to Him and exalt Him a long [part of the] night
كَلّا لا تُطِعهُ وَاسجُد وَاقتَرِب ۩
No! Do not obey him. But prostrate and draw near [to Allah]
