Say: 'I call only upon my Lord, and I do not associate with Him anyone. 20 Say thou: verily I own not for you power of hurt nor of benefit 21 Say: "Verily, no one could ever protect me from God, nor could I ever find a place to hide from Him 22 Unless I convey from God and deliver His message." For those who disobey God and His Apostle is the fire of Hell, where they will abide for ever; 23 When they see that which they were promised they shall know who is weaker in helpers and fewer in numbers. 24 Say: “I know not whether what you are promised is near or whether my Lord will prolong its term. 25 He knows the unseen and He does not allow anyone to know His secrets except those of His Messengers whom He chooses. 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 "That He may know that they have (truly) brought and delivered the Messages of their Lord: and He surrounds (all the mysteries) that are with them, and takes account of every single thing." 28
