Truly, it is We who have revealed to you the Quran, a gradual revelation. 23 Therefore be patient with constancy to the Command of thy Lord, and hearken not to the sinner or the ingrate among them. 24 And glorify the name of your Lord morning and evening. 25 And during the night prostrate to Him and exalt Him a long [part of the] night. 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, but, when We will, We shall indeed exchange their likes. 28 This surely is a reminder: Therefore whosoever desires may take the way to his Lord. 29 But you will not unless God wills; surely God is ever All-knowing, All-wise. 30 He admits into His mercy, whomever He wills; and for the unjust He has kept prepared a painful punishment. 31
