* تفسير Al Qushairi Tafsir


{ فَإِذَا قَضَيْتُمُ ٱلصَّلَٰوةَ فَٱذْكُرُواْ ٱللَّهَ قِيَاماً وَقُعُوداً وَعَلَىٰ جُنُوبِكُمْ فَإِذَا ٱطْمَأْنَنتُمْ فَأَقِيمُواْ ٱلصَّلَٰوةَ إِنَّ ٱلصَّلَٰوةَ كَانَتْ عَلَى ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ كِتَٰباً مَّوْقُوتاً }

When you have performed the prayer remember God standing and sitting and on your sides. Then when you are reassured observe the prayer surely the prayer is for believers a prescription at specific times. The external duties are at specific times while the presence of the heart in remembrance is continuous without stopping. In terms of the outward markers [of religion] it is one time and not another. But in terms of hearts beware of being absent from reality for even a moment no matter what state you are in. Remembrance is for however you are just as you are. Prayer is for when you are reassured.
