Truly, it is We who have revealed to you the Quran, a gradual revelation. 23 So persevere with the command of your Lord and do not pay any heed to the wicked and the unbelieving, 24 and bear in mind thy Sustainer's name at morn and evening 25 And prostrate for Him in a part of the night, and proclaim His purity into the long night. 26 Those people [who are unmindful of God] aspire for immediate gains, and put behind them a Heavy 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 ye will not, unless Allah willeth. Verily Allah is ever Knowing, Wise. 30 He admits to His mercy whomever He wants. For the unjust He has prepared a painful punishment. 31
