Indeed We have sent down the Qur’an upon you, in stages. 23 Wherefore persevere thou with the commandment of thy Lord, and obey not thou of them, any sinner or ingrate. 24 And, remember the Name of your Lord at the dawn and in the evening; 25 And bow in homage part of the night, and glorify Him far into the night. 26 Those people [who are unmindful of God] aspire for immediate gains, and put behind them a Heavy Day. 27 It was We who created them and made their constitution strong, but if We wish we can replace them with others like them. 28 Surely this is a Reminder; so he who will, takes unto his Lord a way. 29 But you cannot will it unless God wills [to show you that way]: for, behold, God is indeed all-seeing, wise. 30 He admits to His Mercy whomsoever He pleases. As for the wrong-doers, He has prepared for them a grievous chastisement. 31
