We have indeed, sent down to you the Koran, a (clear) sending, 23 so be thou patient under the judgment of thy Lord, and obey not one of them, sinner or unbeliever. 24 And remember the Name of your Lord every morning and afternoon [i.e. offering of the Morning (Fajr), Zuhr, and 'Asr prayers]. 25 and during the night prostrate ourself before Him, and extol His glory for a long part of the night. 26 Indeed, these love the hasty life, and are heedless and leave behind them a heavy Day. 27 We have created them and have given them strength. Had We wanted, We could have replaced them with another people like them. 28 Verily this is an Exhortation; so let him who so will take a 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 admits whoever He will into His grace and has prepared a painful punishment for the evil doers. 31
