قال الله تعالى ( الحديد 16 ) : { ألم يأن للذين آمنوا أن تخشع قلوبهم لذكر الله وما نزل من الحق ولا يكونوا كالذين أوتوا الكتاب من قبل فطال عليهم الأمد فقست قلوبهم } قال تعالى ( الحديد 27 ) : { ثم قفينا على آثارهم برسلنا وقفينا بعيسى ابن مريم وآتيناه الإنجيل وجعلنا في قلوب الذين اتبعوه رأفة ورحمة ورهبانية ابتدعوها ما كتبناها عليهم إلا ابتغاء رضوان الله فما رعوها حق رعايتها } قال تعالى ( النحل 92 ) : { ولا تكونوا كالتي نقضت غزلها من بعد قوة أنكاثا } قال تعالى ( الحجر 99 ) : { واعبد ربك حتى يأتيك اليقين } Allah, the Exalted, says: Has not the time come for the hearts of those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah - Islamic Monotheism) to be affected by Allahs Reminder (this Quran), and that which has been revealed of the truth, lest they become as those who received the Scripture [the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] before (i.e., Jews and Christians), and the term was prolonged for them and so their hearts were hardened? (57:16) And We sent `Isa (Jesus) - son of Maryam (Mary), and gave him the Injeel (Gospel). And We ordained in the hearts of those who followed him, compassion and mercy. But the monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them, but (they sought it) only to please Allah therewith, but that they did not observe it with the right observance. (57:27) And be not like her who undoes the thread which she has spun, after it has become strong... (16:92) And worship your Rubb until there comes unto you the certainty (i.e., death). (15:99) And there are Ahadith, one of them is narrated by `Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her): Messenger of Allah (PBUH) liked that act of worship most in the performance of which a person was regular and constant. [Muslim]. - وعن عمر بن الخطاب رضي الله عنه قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم : [ من نام عن حزبه من الليل أو عن شيء منه فقرأه ما بين صلاة الفجر وصلاة الظهر كتب له كأنما قرأه من الليل ] رواه مسلم . `Umar bin Al-Khattab (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, Should anyone fall asleep at night and fail to recite his portion of the Quran, or a part of it, if he recites it between the Fajr prayer and the Zuhr prayer, it will be recorded for him as though he had recited it during the night. [Muslim]. Commentary: The word `Hizb originally means to take ones turn for getting water from a well. Subsequently, people started using it for daily round of recitation which one adopts on his own voluntarily. For instance, fixing a number of Nawafil (voluntary prayers), recital of a certain portion of the Noble Quran or performance of some other noble deed as ones daily routine. This Hadith stresses that one must adhere to such routine. It also tells that if for some reason one is unable to do it at the time fixed by him, he can do it later at the time closest to the one he has fixed for it. If one does so, he will be eligible to its full reward.
