Indeed We have sent down the Qur’an upon you, in 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 celebrate the name of thy Lord morning and evening, 25 Prostrate before Him and glorify Him extensively during the night. 26 These people (disbelievers) love the worldly life and neglect the terrifying day which will come. 27 It is We Who created them, and strengthened their skeleton; and We can replace them with others like them, whenever We will. 28 Verily this is an admonition; then whosoever will, may choose a way unto 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 to His mercy whomever He wants. For the unjust He has prepared a painful punishment. 31
