Indeed We have sent down the Qur’an upon you, in stages. 23 So persevere with the command of your Lord and do not pay any heed to the wicked and the unbelieving, 24 and glorify your Lord morning and evening; 25 And during night, prostrate yourself to Him (i.e. the offering of Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers), and glorify Him a long night through (i.e. Tahajjud prayer). 26 Those people [who are unmindful of God] aspire for immediate gains, and put behind them a Heavy Day. 27 We created them, and We strengthened their joints; and, when We will, We shall exchange their likes. 28 This is indeed an advice; so whoever wishes may take the path towards his Lord. 29 But ye will not, except as Allah wills; for Allah is full of Knowledge and Wisdom. 30 He maketh whomsoever He listeth to enter His mercy. And the wrong-doers! for them He hath gotten ready a torment afflective. 31
