Al-Jalalayn Commentary

And remember your Lord within yourself that is secretly humbly submissively and fearfully in awe of Him and louder than speaking in secret more quietly than speaking out loud that is a middle way between the two at morning and evening at the beginning of the day and at its end. And do not be among the heedless of God’s remembrance.

(And do thou (O Muhammad) remember thy Lord within thyself) recite alone by yourself, O Muhammad, if you are leading the prayer (humbly and with awe, below your breath) avoiding to raise your voice too loudly or lowering it too much, (at morn and evening) during the morning prayer and in evening prayer: Maghrib and 'Isha'. (And be you not of the neglectful) of reciting the Qur'an in prayers whether you are praying alone or leading the prayer.
