Sura Al-Baqarah from 146 to 153


146. Those to whom We gave the Scripture ( Jews and Christians ) recognise him ( Muhammad ( saas ) or the Ka‘bah at Makkah ) as they recognise their sons. But verily, a party of them conceal the truth while they know it - [ i.e. the qualities of Muhammad ( saas ) which are written in the Taurât ( Torah ) and the Injeel ( Gospel ) ] . [ 1 ]
147. ( This is ) the truth from your Lord. So be you not one of those who doubt.
148. For every nation there is a direction to which they face ( in their prayers ) . So hasten towards all that is good. Wheresoever you may be, Allâh will bring you together ( on the Day of Resurrection ) . Truly, Allâh is Able to do all things.
149. And from wheresoever you start forth ( for prayers ) , turn your face in the direction of Al- Masjid- Al- Harâm ( at Makkah ) , that is indeed the truth from your Lord. And Allâh is not unaware of what you do.
150. And from wheresoever you start forth ( for prayers ) , turn your face in the direction of Al- Masjid- Al- Harâm ( at Makkah ) , and wheresoever you are, turn your faces towards it ( when you pray ) so that men may have no argument against you except those of them that are wrong- doers, so fear them not, but fear Me! - And so that I may complete My Blessings on you and that you may be guided.
151. Similarly ( to complete My Blessings on you ) , We have sent among you a Messenger ( Muhammad ( saas ) ) of your own, reciting to you Our Verses ( the Qur’ân ) and purifying you, and teaching you the Book ( the Qur’ân ) and the Hikmah ( i.e. Sunnah, Islâmic laws and Fiqh - jurisprudence ) , and teaching you that which you used not to know.
152. Therefore remember Me ( by praying, glorifying ) , [ 2 ] I will remember you, and be grateful to Me ( for My countless Favours on you ) and never be ungrateful to Me.
153. O you who believe! Seek help in patience and As- Salât ( the prayer ) . Truly! Allâh is with As- Sâbirûn ( the patient ) .

a ) See the footnote of ( V.13:28 ) .
b ) Narrated Abu Hurairah ( raa ) : The Prophet ( saas ) said, « Allâh ( Lord Almighty and Exalted ) says, I am just as My slave thinks I am, ( i.e. I am Able to do for him what he thinks I can do for him ) and I am with him if he remembers Me. If he remembers Me in himself, I too, remember him in Myself; and if he remembers Me in a group of people, I remember him in a group that is better than them; and if he comes one span nearer to Me, I go one cubit nearer to him; and if he comes one cubit nearer to Me, I go a distance of two outstretched arms nearer to him; and if he comes to Me walking, I go to him running.
