It is We Who have sent down the Qur'an to thee by stages. 23 Therefore stay patient upon your Lord’s command, and do not listen to any of the sinners or ingrates among them. 24 And, remember the Name of your Lord at the dawn and in the evening; 25 And bow in homage part of the night, and glorify Him far into the night. 26 Behold, they [who are unmindful of God] love this fleeting life, and leave behind them [all thought of] a grief-laden Day. 27 It is We Who creared them and made them firm of make. And whenever We list, We can replace them with others like unto them. 28 Verily this is an Exhortation; so let him who so will take a way to his Lord. 29 (The virtuous mentioned in this chapter) want only what God wants. God is All-knowing and All-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
