(O Prophet), indeed We have revealed the Qur'an to you in portions. 23 So wait patiently for the command of your Lord and do not yield to any sinful or disbelieving person among them (people). 24 And celebrate the name of thy Lord morning and evening, 25 and during some of the night, and prostrate thyself before Him, and extol His limitless glory throughout the long night. 26 Surely men love what hastes away and forget the grievous day (ahead). 27 We created them and strengthened their joints; and whenever We wish, We can change their faces entirely. 28 This is an admonition: Whosoever will, let him take a (straight) Path to his Lord. 29 But you cannot will it unless God wills [to show you that way]: for, behold, God is indeed all-seeing, wise. 30 He maketh whomsoever He listeth to enter His mercy. And the wrong-doers! for them He hath gotten ready a torment afflective. 31
