It is We Who have sent down the Qur'an to thee by 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 and in the night prostrate to Him; and exalt Him for a long night. 26 Surely these love the transitory and neglect a grievous day before them. 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 admonition; then whosoever will, may choose a way unto his Lord. 29 And ye will not, unless Allah willeth. Verily Allah is ever Knowing, Wise. 30 He admits whosoever He will to His benevolence. But for the evil-doers He has prepared a painful punishment. 31
