Messenger’s Comment on the Above 6 Verses: Each time Allah has presented the question to the hypocrites and the disbelievers, their answer was correct by proclaiming His name.

I also stated that the Creator does not need any help from anyone, but His creatures do need His help. The topic on sleep and rest has been covered through 2:255.
