34. And those who guard [21] their prayers,
[21] At the beginning of Surah Al-Mu’minun, the qualities of the believers who attain success are described. These qualities are very similar to those being mentioned here. In Surah Al-Mu’minun, the description of these qualities also began with prayer and ended with prayer. And here, the situation is exactly the same, from which the true importance of prayer in the religion can be properly understood.
