[19].Surah Maryam [Mary] : Ayat 81-82



Ayat 81. And they have taken (for worship) âliha (gods) besides Allah, that they might give them honour, power and glory (and also protect them from Allah's Punishment etc.).
Ayat 82. Nay, but they (the so-called gods) will deny their worship of them, and become opponents to them (on the Day of Resurrection).
[Tafseer] And they have taken (for worship) gods other than Allah, to give them power and glory! 'Izza = exalted rank, power, might, the ability to impose one's will or to carry out one's will. (Nay, but they will deny their worship of them) i.e. the idols will absolve themselves from the disbelievers' worship of them, (and become) i.e. the idols (opponents unto them) a help in the torment of the disbelievers.
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "The religion (of Islam) is easy, and whoever makes the religion a rigour, it will overpower him. So, follow a middle course (in worship); if you can't do this, do something near to it and give glad tidings and seek help (of Allah) at morn and at dusk and some part of night". 
[Al-Bukhari Book 01,Chapter 02, Hadith # 038] 
Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Maryam Ayat 81."And they have taken (for worship) âliha (gods) besides Allah" Besides moderation in worship, this Hadith enjoins that such times should be fixed for worship when one is fresh so that one feels pleasure in performing it. But this principle is for optional and voluntary prayers only. Obligatory Salat are to be performed at the prescribed times only.
