(Muhammad), We have revealed the Quran to you in gradual steps. 23 So wait patiently for the command of your Lord and do not yield to any sinful or disbelieving person among them (people). 24 And remember the Name of thy Lord at dawn and in the evening 25 And during night, prostrate yourself to Him (i.e. the offering of Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers), and glorify Him a long night through (i.e. Tahajjud prayer). 26 Verily they love (the good of this world) that is hastily obtainable and are oblivious of the burdensome Day ahead of them. 27 We have created them and have given them strength. Had We wanted, We could have replaced them with another people like them. 28 This is indeed a Reminder, so that he who will, takes a path to his Lord. 29 But your willing shall be of no avail until Allah Himself so wills. Surely Allah is All-Knowing, Most Wise. 30 He admits to His Mercy whomsoever He pleases. As for the wrong-doers, He has prepared for them a grievous chastisement. 31
