VERILY, [O believer,] it is We who have bestowed from on high this Qur'an upon thee, step by step - truly a bestowal from on high! 23 So wait patiently for the command of your Lord and do not yield to any sinful or disbelieving person among them (people). 24 Remember the name of thy Lord at morn and evening. 25 and during the night prostrate ourself before Him, and extol His glory for a long part of the night. 26 Verily they love (the good of this world) that is hastily obtainable and are oblivious of the burdensome Day ahead of them. 27 We have created them and strengthened their forms, and when We will, We can change their likenesses with [complete] alteration. 28 This is a reminder. Let whoever wishes, take the right path to his Lord. 29 But you cannot will it unless God wills [to show you that way] -- God is indeed all-knowing and wise -- 30 He maketh whomsoever He listeth to enter His mercy. And the wrong-doers! for them He hath gotten ready a torment afflective. 31
