It is We Who have sent down the Qur'an to thee by stages. 23 So wait patiently for the command of your Lord and do not yield to any sinful or disbelieving person among them (people). 24 Mention the Name of your Lord, mornings and evenings. 25 And during part of the night adore Him, and give glory to Him (a) long (part of the) night. 26 Behold, they [who are unmindful of God] love this fleeting life, and leave behind them [all thought of] a grief-laden Day. 27 [They will not admit to themselves that] it We who have created them and strengthened their make - and [that] if it be Our will We can replace them entirely with others of their kind. 28 This is indeed a Reminder, so that he who will, takes a path to his Lord. 29 And what will you wish, except if Allah wills; indeed Allah is All Knowing, Wise. 30 He maketh whom He will to enter His mercy, and for evil-doers hath prepared a painful doom. 31
