Quran 94:7~8 (Ayah Ash-Sharh)

So, Onceyou have finished (your work), then stand up (for Allah’s worship),turning to your Lord ˹alone˺ with hope.Quran 94:7~8Surah Ash-Sharh(“Solace, Consolation, Relief, The Expansion”) — ^{Al-Inshirāḥ (Arabic: الإنشراح, “Solace” or “Comfort”), or ash-Sharḥ (Arabic: الشرح, “The Opening-Up of the Breast”) is the ninety-fourth chapter (surah) of the Qur’an, with eight ayat or verses}

فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَٱنصَبْ

وَإِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَٱرْغَب‏‏ — ^{1-4 God made Muhammad’s mission easy to him
5-8 He is exhorted to labour and pray after the mission is ended
The passage asks the reader, who is Muhammad specifically, if God has been a comfort and a remover of obstacles. Whatever personal sorrows this may bring to mind, “Surely, with each difficulty there is ease”. This may indeed be the key phrase of this sura; it is repeated in lines 5 and 6. Conversely, the reader is asked to continue their work diligently, even when it grows simple again – for God, Himself is what you are working for.}

لہٰذا جب تم فارغ ہو
تو
عبادت کی مشقت میں لگ جاؤ

اور
اپنے رب ہی کی طرف
راغب ہو — ^{Because of its subject matter, length, style, and placement in the Qur’an, this sura is often coupled with Surah ad-Dhuha (Sura 93). They are generally considered to have been revealed around the same time. Al-Inshirāḥ’s subject matter seems a continuation of the reassurance and encouragement given in the preceding chapter and so closely resembles it that both these Surah seem to have been revealed in about the same period under similar conditions.}
