Verily We! it is We Who have revealed unto thee the Qur'an, a gradual revelation. 23 So be patient for the decision of your Lord and do not obey from among them a sinner or ungrateful [disbeliever]. 24 And remember the name of your Lord morning and evening. 25 and during some of the night, and prostrate thyself before Him, and extol His limitless glory throughout the long night. 26 Lo! these love fleeting life, and put behind them (the remembrance of) a grievous day. 27 We created them, and We strengthened their joints; and, when We will, We shall exchange their likes. 28 Surely this is a Reminder; so he who will, takes unto his Lord a way. 29 But you cannot will, unless Allah wills. Verily, Allah 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
