VERILY, [O believer,] it is We who have bestowed from on high this Qur'an upon thee, step by step - truly a bestowal from on high! 23 Therefore stay patient upon your Lord’s command, and do not listen to any of the sinners or ingrates among them. 24 And mention the name of your Lord [in prayer] morning and evening 25 Prostrate before Him and glorify Him extensively during the night. 26 Lo! these love fleeting life, and put behind them (the remembrance of) a grievous 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 Indeed, this is a reminder, so he who wills may take to his Lord a way. 29 And what will you wish, except if Allah wills; indeed Allah is All Knowing, Wise. 30 He admits to His mercy whomever He wants. For the unjust He has prepared a painful punishment. 31
