So be steadfast as you are commanded ˹O Prophet˺, along with those who turn ˹in submission to Allah˺ with you. And do not transgress. Surely He is All-Seeing of what you ˹believers˺ do. And do not be inclined to the wrongdoers or you will be touched by the Fire. For then you would have no protectors other than Allah, nor would you be helped. Establish prayer ˹O Prophet˺ at both ends of the day and in the early part of the night. Surely good deeds wipe out evil deeds. That is a reminder for the mindful. And be patient! Certainly Allah does not discount the reward of the good-doers. Quran 11:112~115
The mention of Prophet Hud occurs more time in this Surah than any other Surah of the Qur’an. It appears a total of 5 times.
The Prophet refered to this surah as Hud in a number of hadeeth. Abu Bakr once said to the Prophet, ‘O Messenger of Allah, you have become old.’ The Prophet said, ‘I have become old [due to] [Surah] Hud, al-Waqiah [56], al-Murasalat [77], Amma yatasailoon [an-Naba 78] and Waidha ash-Shamsu kuwirat [at-Takweer 81].” [Tirmidhee]
There are 123 Ayat in this Surah.

فَٱسۡتَقِمۡ كَمَاۤ أُمِرۡتَ وَمَن تَابَ مَعَكَ وَلَا تَطۡغَوۡا۟ۚ إِنَّهُۥ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ بَصِیرࣱ وَلَا تَرۡكَنُوۤا۟ إِلَى ٱلَّذِینَ ظَلَمُوا۟ فَتَمَسَّكُمُ ٱلنَّارُ وَمَا لَكُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مِنۡ أَوۡلِیَاۤءَ ثُمَّ لَا تُنصَرُونَ وَأَقِمِ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ طَرَفَیِ ٱلنَّهَارِ وَزُلَفࣰا مِّنَ ٱلَّیۡلِۚ إِنَّ ٱلۡحَسَنَـٰتِ یُذۡهِبۡنَ ٱلسَّیِّءَاتِۚ ذَ ٰلِكَ ذِكۡرَىٰ لِلذَّ ٰكِرِینَ وَٱصۡبِرۡ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا یُضِیعُ أَجۡرَ ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِینَ
In this Surah we have the stories of Prophets Noah, Salih, Hud, Lot, Shuaib and Moses – peace be upon them all. The basic point is that Allah sent His Prophets and Messengers to mankind out of His grace and mercy, but when people did not listen to the Prophets and rejected their message then Allah’s punishment came and came relentlessly. It did not make any difference whether someone was the son of a Prophet or his wife or any one, none could escape Allah’s judgment.
سو (اے پیغمبر) جیسا تم کو حکم ہوتا ہے (اس پر) تم اور جو لوگ تمہارے ساتھ تائب ہوئے ہیں قائم رہو۔ اور حد سے تجاوز نہ کرنا۔ وہ تمہارے سب اعمال کو دیکھ رہا ہے اور جو لوگ ظالم ہیں، ان کی طرف مائل نہ ہونا، نہیں تو تمہیں (دوزخ کی) آگ آلپٹے گی اور خدا کے سوا تمہارے اور دوست نہیں ہیں۔ اگر تم ظالموں کی طرف مائل ہوگئے تو پھر تم کو (کہیں سے) مدد نہ مل سکے گی اور دن کے دونوں سروں (یعنی صبح اور شام کے اوقات میں) اور رات کی چند (پہلی) ساعات میں نماز پڑھا کرو۔ کچھ شک نہیں کہ نیکیاں گناہوں کو دور کر دیتی ہیں۔ یہ ان کے لیے نصیحت ہے جو نصیحت قبول کرنے والے ہیں اور صبر کیے رہو کہ خدا نیکوکاروں کا اجر ضائع نہیں کرتا
