Indeed We have sent down the Qur’an upon you, in stages. 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 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 Verily they love (the good of this world) that is hastily obtainable and are oblivious of the burdensome Day ahead of them. 27 We have created them and strengthened their forms, and when We will, We can change their likenesses with [complete] alteration. 28 Surely this is a Reminder; so he who will, takes unto his Lord a way. 29 But you cannot will, unless Allah wills. Verily, Allah is Ever All-Knowing, All-Wise. 30 He is Merciful to whom He will; but, for the harmdoers He has prepared for them a painful punishment. 31
