Surely We Ourselves have revealed the Quran to you revealing (it) in portions. 23 Therefore stay patient upon your Lord’s command, and do not listen to any of the sinners or ingrates among them. 24 And, remember the Name of your Lord at the dawn and in the evening; 25 And during the night prostrate to Him and exalt Him a long [part of the] night. 26 Surely men love what hastes away and forget the grievous day (ahead). 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 Surely this is a reminder, so whoever pleases takes to his Lord a way. 29 But your willing shall be of no avail until Allah Himself so wills. Surely Allah is All-Knowing, Most Wise. 30 For He admits into His mercy whomsoever He will; as for the evildoers, He has prepared for them a painful chastisement. 31
