your lord surely knows that you are occupied with your devotions for nearly twothirds of the night or half the night or onethird of it as do many others with you. yet god prescribes the measure of night and day. he knows you cannot calculate it and so turns to you in benevolence. so recite as much of the quran as you can easily. he knows some among you will be sick and some will be travelling over the earth in search of the bounty of god and some fighting in the way of god. so read as much from it as you can easily and be firm in devotion pay the zakat and lend a goodly loan to god. and what you send for yourself of the good you will find it with god better and greater in reward. so ask for gods forgiveness. indeed god is forgiving and kind.
إن ربك يعلم أنك تقوم أدنى من ثلثي الليل ونصفه وثلثه وطائفة من الذين معك والله يقدر الليل والنهار علم أن لن تحصوه فتاب عليكم فاقرءوا ما تيسر من القرآن علم أن سيكون منكم مرضى وآخرون يضربون في الأرض يبتغون من فضل الله وآخرون يقاتلون في سبيل الله فاقرءوا ما تيسر منه وأقيموا الصلاة وآتوا الزكاة وأقرضوا الله قرضا حسنا وما تقدموا لأنفسكم من خير تجدوه عند الله هو خيرا وأعظم أجرا واستغفروا الله إن الله غفور رحيم
