50:39-40(24) "Therefore, keep patience upon what they insinuate and keeping in view the target of establishing the glory and praise of your Sustainer (بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ), keep striving hard with entire resources (وَسَبِّحْ) before the sun of your supremacy rises (قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ); and before you fear its downfall (وَقَبْلَ الْغُرُوبِ). And in the midst of the shadows of ignorance (وَمِنَ اللَّيْلِ), keep working hard towards this target (فَسَبِّحْهُ) as well as after you have already achieved the state of total submission (وَأَدْبَارَ السُّجُودِ). And keep your hearing open to that time when an announcer would proclaim about a certain event from a station near about."
