(Muhammad), We have revealed the Quran to you in gradual steps. 23 therefore be patient under the Judgement of your Lord, and do not obey either the sinner or the unbeliever. 24 And remember the Name of your Lord every morning and afternoon [i.e. offering of the Morning (Fajr), Zuhr, and 'Asr prayers]. 25 Prostrate before Him and glorify Him extensively during the night. 26 Indeed, these [disbelievers] love the immediate and leave behind them a grave Day. 27 It is We Who created them, and We have made their joints strong; but, when We will, We can substitute the like of them by a complete change. 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 into His mercy, whomever He wills; and for the unjust He has kept prepared a painful punishment. 31
