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 And remember thou the name of thy Lord in the morning and in the evening. 25 And during night, prostrate yourself to Him (i.e. the offering of Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers), and glorify Him a long night through (i.e. Tahajjud prayer). 26 Verily! These (disbelievers) love the present life of this world, and put behind them a heavy Day (that will be hard). 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 Lo! this is an Admonishment, that whosoever will may choose a way unto his Lord. 29 But you will not unless God wills; surely God is ever All-knowing, All-wise. 30 He admits whosoever He will to His benevolence. But for the evil-doers He has prepared a painful punishment. 31
