(O Prophet), indeed We have revealed the Qur'an to you in portions. 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 Those people [who are unmindful of God] aspire for immediate gains, and put behind them a Heavy Day. 27 [They will not admit to themselves that] it We who have created them and strengthened their make - and [that] if it be Our will We can replace them entirely with others of their kind. 28 Surely this is a reminder, so whoever pleases takes to his Lord a way. 29 But you will not desire except as God wills. Verily He is all-knowing and all-wise. 30 He is Merciful to whom He will; but, for the harmdoers He has prepared for them a painful punishment. 31
