[13]. Muhammad, God's messenger (ﷺ) kept standing in prayer (for long hours in the night) that his feet were swollen. They (his Companions) said: Verily, Allāh has pardoned for you the earlier and the later of your sins if any. Thereupon he said: Should I not prove myself to be a grateful servant (of Allāh)?

"I am Allah! There is no one worthy of worship but I, so worship Me alone, and establish the prayer for My Remembrance."
Allāh said to Moses: “This is what you are to say to the Israelite’s, ‘Allāh the God of your forefathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ There is no other god besides Allāh, A righteous God and a Savior; There is none except Him.
