(Muhammad), We have revealed the Quran to you in gradual steps. 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 morning and evening. 25 And prostrate for Him in a part of the night, and proclaim His purity into the long night. 26 Indeed, these love the hasty life, and are heedless and leave 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 Verily this is an Exhortation; so let him who so will take a way to his Lord. 29 But ye will not, except as Allah wills; for Allah is full of Knowledge and Wisdom. 30 He admits whoever He will into His grace and has prepared a painful punishment for the evil doers. 31
