Indeed We have sent down the Qur’an upon you, in stages. 23 Therefore stay patient upon your Lord’s command, and do not listen to any of the sinners or ingrates among them. 24 And remember 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 We created them, and We strengthened their joints, but, when We will, We shall indeed exchange their likes. 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 whomever He wants. For the unjust He has prepared a painful punishment. 31
