28 And content yourself with those

who pray to their Lord morning and

evening, desiring His Presence. And

do not turn your eyes away from

them, desiring the glitter of this

world. And do not obey him whose

heart We have made heedless of

Our remembrance—so he follows

his own desires—and his priorities

are confused.

29 And say, “The truth is from your

Lord. Whoever wills—let him

believe. And whoever wills—let him

disbelieve”. We have prepared for

the unjust a Fire, whose curtains will
