It is We Who have sent down the Qur'an to thee by stages. 23 so be thou patient under the judgment of thy Lord, and obey not one of them, sinner or unbeliever. 24 and glorify your Lord morning and evening; 25 and part of the night; bow down before Him and magnify Him through the long night. 26 Surely these men love the hasty world, and leave be behind them a heavy day. 27 We have created them and strengthened their forms, and when We will, We can change their likenesses with [complete] alteration. 28 This is indeed an advice; so whoever wishes may take the path towards 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 makes whom He pleases to enter into His mercy; and (as for) the unjust, He has prepared for them a painful chastisement. 31
