Verily! It is We Who have sent down the Quran to you (O Muhammad SAW) by stages. 23 Therefore stay patient upon your Lord’s command, and do not listen to any of the sinners or ingrates among them. 24 And glorify the name of your Lord morning and evening. 25 And during the night prostrate to Him and exalt Him a long [part of the] night. 26 Behold, they [who are unmindful of God] love this fleeting life, and leave behind them [all thought of] a grief-laden Day. 27 We created them and strengthened their joints; and whenever We wish, We can change their faces entirely. 28 This surely is a reminder: Therefore whosoever desires may take the way to his Lord. 29 But you cannot will it unless God wills [to show you that way] -- God is indeed all-knowing and wise -- 30 He will admit to His Mercy whom He will; But the wrong-doers,- for them has He prepared a grievous Penalty. 31
