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 Remember the name of thy Lord at morn and evening. 25 And bow in homage part of the night, and glorify Him far into the night. 26 Lo! these love fleeting life, and put behind them (the remembrance of) a grievous day. 27 It is We Who created them, and We have made their joints strong; but, when We will, We can substitute the like of them by a complete change. 28 This is indeed an advice; so whoever wishes may take the path towards his Lord. 29 But you will not unless God wills; surely God is ever All-knowing, All-wise. 30 He admits whoever He will into His grace and has prepared a painful punishment for the evil doers. 31
