Indeed We have sent down the Qur’an upon you, in stages. 23 so be thou patient under the judgment of thy Lord, and obey not one of them, sinner or unbeliever. 24 And remember the name of your Lord morning and evening. 25 and part of the night; bow down before Him and magnify Him through the long 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 We created them and made firm their make, and when We please We will bring in their place the likes of them by a change. 28 This is an admonition: Whosoever will, let him take a (straight) Path to his Lord. 29 But your willing shall be of no avail until Allah Himself so wills. Surely Allah is All-Knowing, Most Wise. 30 He is Merciful to whom He will; but, for the harmdoers He has prepared for them a painful punishment. 31
