Allah is never unaware of what His servants do: these verses stress this repeatedly. They also describe the heedless, whom worldly life turns away from the truth and the Hereafter, foretell their woe when death awakens them, and warn against obeying one whose heart is heedless of Allah’s remembrance.
Verses gathered from a topical index of the Quran, in Mushaf order; every verse is quoted in full.
And keep yourself patient [by being] with those who call upon their Lord in the morning and the evening, seeking His face [i.e., acceptance]. And let not your eyes pass beyond them, desiring adornments of the worldly life, and do not obey one whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance and who follows his desire and whose affair is ever [in] neglect.
