(Muhammad), We have revealed the Quran to you in gradual steps. 23 Therefore be patient with constancy to the Command of thy Lord, and hearken not to the sinner or the ingrate among them. 24 Mention the Name of your Lord, mornings and evenings. 25 and during some of the night, and prostrate thyself before Him, and extol His limitless glory throughout the long night. 26 Indeed, these [disbelievers] love the immediate and leave behind them a grave Day. 27 We created them, and We strengthened their joints; and, when We will, We shall exchange their likes. 28 This chapter is a reminder. Let those who want, seek guidance from their Lord. 29 But you will not unless God wills; surely God is ever All-knowing, All-wise. 30 He admits to His Mercy whomsoever He pleases. As for the wrong-doers, He has prepared for them a grievous chastisement. 31
