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 wait for your Lord's command, and do not follow any sinner or disbeliever among them. 24 And mention the name of your Lord [in prayer] morning and evening 25 and during the night prostrate ourself before Him, and extol His glory for a long part of the night. 26 Indeed, these [disbelievers] love the immediate and leave behind them a grave Day. 27 We created them, and We strengthened their joints; and, when We will, We shall exchange their likes. 28 Verily this is an Exhortation; so let him who so will take a way to his Lord. 29 But you will not desire except as God wills. Verily He is all-knowing and all-wise. 30 He will admit to His Mercy whom He will and as for the Zalimun, (polytheists, wrong-doers, etc.) He has prepared a painful torment. 31
