Surely We have sent down the Koran on thee, a sending down; 23 So persevere with the command of your Lord and do not pay any heed to the wicked and the unbelieving, 24 And celebrate the name of thy Lord morning and evening, 25 And during the night - worship Him; and hallow Him the livelong night. 26 Those people [who are unmindful of God] aspire for immediate gains, and put behind them a Heavy Day. 27 It is We Who creared them and made them firm of make. And whenever We list, We can replace them with others like unto them. 28 Verily this is an Exhortation; so let him who so will take a way to his Lord. 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
