We have revealed the Qur'an to you gradually; 23 So persevere with the command of your Lord and do not pay any heed to the wicked and the unbelieving, 24 And remember the Name of your Lord every morning and afternoon [i.e. offering of the Morning (Fajr), Zuhr, and 'Asr prayers]. 25 And prostrate for Him in a part of the night, and proclaim His purity into the long night. 26 Indeed, these love the hasty life, and are heedless and leave behind them a heavy Day. 27 It is We Who created them, and We have made their joints strong; but, when We will, We can substitute the like of them by a complete change. 28 Indeed, this is a reminder, so he who wills may take to his Lord a way. 29 But you will not desire except as God wills. Verily He is all-knowing and all-wise. 30 He maketh whomsoever He listeth to enter His mercy. And the wrong-doers! for them He hath gotten ready a torment afflective. 31
