('Qur'an,'XVII, 80-3)
Perform the prayer
at the sinking of the sun to the darkening of the night
and the recital of dawn;
surely the recital of dawn is witnessed
And as for the night,
keep vigil a part of it, as a work of supererogation for thee;
it may be that thy Lord will
raise thee up to a laudable station.
And say: 'My Lord,
lead me in with a just ingoing, and lead me out with a
just outgoing, grant me
authority from Thee, to help me.'
And say:
'The truth has come, and falsehood has vanished away;
surely falsehood
is ever certain to vanish.'
