Say: 'I call only upon my Lord, and I do not associate with Him anyone. 20 Say: “Surely neither it is in my power to hurt you nor to bring you to the Right Way.” 21 Say: 'From God shall protect me not anyone, and I shall find, apart from Him, no refuge, 22 excepting a Deliverance from God and His Messages. And whoso rebels against God and His messenger, for him there awaits the Fire of Gehenna; therein they shall dwell forever.' 23 Until, when they see that which they are promised, then they will know who is weaker in helpers and fewer in numbers. 24 Say (O dear Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him), “I do not know whether what you are promised is close or if my Lord will postpone it for a while.” 25 He alone has knowledge of what is hidden. He reveals this to none, 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 indeed conveyed the messages of their Lord. He surroundeth all their doings, and He keepeth count of all things. 28
