Those who hold tightly to the scripture and act according to it, establishing the prayer as it should be established and in its set times, Allah will reward their actions – Allah does not allow the reward of those who act well to be lost.
As for those who hold fast to the Scripture and establish prayer, We will not let the reward of those who seek righteousness to be lost.

And as for those who make (men) keep the Scripture, and establish worship - lo! We squander not the wages of reformers.
As to those who hold fast by the Book and establish regular prayer,- never shall We suffer the reward of the righteous to perish.
And (as for) those who hold fast by the Book and keep up prayer, surely We do not waste the reward of the right doers.

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ إِنَّا لَا نُضِيعُ أَجْرَ مَنْ أَحْسَنَ عَمَلًا
Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds - indeed, We will not allow to be lost the reward of any who did well in deeds.
