Say, [O Muhammad], "I only invoke my Lord and do not associate with Him anyone." 20 Say: "Neither is your loss within my power nor bringing you to guidance." 21 Say: "Verily, no one could ever protect me from God, nor could I ever find a place to hide from Him 22 “I only convey the commands from Allah, and His messages; and whoever disobeys the commands of Allah and His Noble Messenger – then indeed for him is the fire of hell, in which they will remain for ever and ever.” 23 Until when they see what they are threatened with, then shall they know who is weaker in helpers and fewer in number. 24 Say: 'I do not know whether that which you are promised is nigh, or whether my Lord will appoint for it a space; 25 [He is] Knower of the unseen, and He does not disclose His [knowledge of the] unseen to anyone 26 other than to a Messenger whom He chooses (for the bestowal of any part of the knowledge of the Unseen), whereafter He appoints guards who go before him and behind him, 27 In order to see that they have conveyed the messages of their Lord – and His knowledge encompasses all whatever they have, and He has kept all things accounted for. 28
