My Comments :

Surah 7:205  وَٱذْكُر رَّبَّكَ فِى نَفْسِكَ تَضَرُّعًۭا وَخِيفَةًۭ وَدُونَ ٱلْجَهْرِ مِنَ ٱلْقَوْلِ بِٱلْغُدُوِّ وَٱلْـَٔاصَالِ وَلَا تَكُن مِّنَ ٱلْغَـٰفِلِينَ  

And remember your Lord within yourselves, 
in humility and fear, 
and not in a loud voice
in the morning and the evenings 
and do not be among the careless

Here are six other translators of 7:205:

Arberry    Remember thy Lord in thy soul, humbly and fearfully, not loud of voice, at morn and eventide. Be not thou among the heedless.

Shakir    And remember your Lord within yourself humbly and fearing
and in a voice not loud in the morning and the evening and be not of the heedless ones.

Sarwar    Remember your Lord deep within yourselves, humbly and privately -
instead of shouting out loud - (in prayer) in the mornings and evenings and do not be of the heedless ones.

Malik    Bring your Lord to remembrance deep in your soul with humility and in reverence
without raising your voice, both in the mornings and in the evenings; and be not of those who are heedless.[205]

Maulana Ali**    And remember thy Lord within thyself humbly and fearing,
and in a voice not loud, in the morning and the evening, and be not of the heedless.

Asad    And bethink thyself of thy Sustainer humbly and with awe,
and without raising thy voice, at morn and at evening; and do not allow thyself to be heedless.

The bigger question is are they obeying the Quran or not?
