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 So persevere with the command of your Lord and do not pay any heed to the wicked and the unbelieving, 24 And celebrate the name of thy Lord morning and evening, 25 and in the night prostrate to Him; and exalt Him for a long 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 created them, and We strengthened their joints; and, when We will, We shall exchange their likes. 28 Verily! This (Verses of the Quran) is an admonition, so whosoever wills, let him take a Path to his Lord (Allah). 29 And ye will not, unless Allah willeth. Verily Allah is ever Knowing, Wise. 30 He admits whom He wills into His mercy; but the wrongdoers - He has prepared for them a painful punishment. 31
