أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ صَلَوَٰتٌ مِّن رَّبِّهِمْ وَرَحْمَةٌ وَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْمُهْتَدُونَ
Alternative: Upon them are prayers from their Sustainer.
Research rendering: Upon them are devoted attentions from their Sustainer.
The rendering must work when the attentions come from ربهم. 'Prayers from their Sustainer' muddies the direction; 'devoted attentions' keeps the Arabic relation intact.
