Verily We! it is We Who have revealed unto thee the Qur'an, a gradual revelation. 23 Therefore stay patient upon your Lord’s command, and do not listen to any of the sinners or ingrates among them. 24 And glorify the name of your Lord morning and evening. 25 and prostrate yourself before Him at night, and extol His Glory during the long watches of the night. 26 Lo! these love fleeting life, and put behind them (the remembrance of) a grievous 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 VERILY, all this is an admonition: whoever, then, so wills, may unto his Sustainer find a way. 29 But you cannot will, unless Allah wills. Verily, Allah is Ever All-Knowing, All-Wise. 30 He admits to His mercy whomever He wants. For the unjust He has prepared a painful punishment. 31
