Indeed We have sent down the Qur’an upon you, in stages. 23 Therefore wait patiently for the command of your Lord, and obey not from among them a sinner or an ungrateful one. 24 And remember the Name of your Lord every morning and afternoon [i.e. offering of the Morning (Fajr), Zuhr, and 'Asr prayers]. 25 and during some of the night, and prostrate thyself before Him, and extol His limitless glory throughout the long night. 26 Indeed, these [disbelievers] love the immediate and leave behind them a grave Day. 27 We, even We, created them, and strengthened their frame. And when We will, We can replace them, bringing others like them in their stead. 28 VERILY, all this is an admonition: whoever, then, so wills, may unto his Sustainer find a way. 29 But your willing shall be of no avail until Allah Himself so wills. Surely Allah is All-Knowing, Most Wise. 30 He maketh whom He will to enter His mercy, and for evil-doers hath prepared a painful doom. 31
