Lo! We, even We, have revealed unto thee the Qur'an, a revelation; 23 So persevere with the command of your Lord and do not pay any heed to the wicked and the unbelieving, 24 and remember the name of your Lord, morning and evening; 25 and in the night prostrate to Him; and exalt Him for a long night. 26 Those people [who are unmindful of God] aspire for immediate gains, and put behind them a Heavy 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 Indeed, this is a reminder, so he who wills may take to 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 whoever He will into His grace and has prepared a painful punishment for the evil doers. 31
