Truly, it is We who have revealed to you the Quran, a gradual revelation. 23 Therefore be patient with constancy to the Command of thy Lord, and hearken not to the sinner or the ingrate among them. 24 Meditate upon the name of your Lord morning and evening; 25 and during some of the night, and prostrate thyself before Him, and extol His limitless glory throughout the long night. 26 Surely these men love the hasty world, and leave be behind them a heavy day. 27 We, even We, created them, and strengthened their frame. And when We will, We can replace them, bringing others like them in their stead. 28 This surely is a reminder: Therefore whosoever desires may take the way to his Lord. 29 But you will not desire except as God wills. Verily He is all-knowing and all-wise. 30 He admits whoever He will into His grace and has prepared a painful punishment for the evil doers. 31
