So be patient, O Messenger, on what the Jews and others say, and pray the Fajr prayer to your Lord, praising Him before sunrise, and pray Asr before sunset.
So bear patiently [O Prophet] what they say, and glorify the praise of your Lord before sunrise and before sunset18.
[18] This and the following verse refer to the times of the five daily prayers; before the sun rises and sets (i.e., the Fajr, Zuhr, and ‘Asr prayers).

Therefore be patient of what they say, and sing the praise of your Lord before the rising of the sun and before the setting.
So (endure) patiently what they say and extol with the praise of your Lord before the rising of the sun and before (its) setting;
We were in the presence of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) when he looked at the moon when it was full, and he said: "You will see your Lord as you see this moon, you will not have any difficulty in seeing Him. So if you are able to not be overcome in observing a prayer…
