Say: "I invoke my Sustainer alone, for I do not ascribe divinity to anyone beside Him." 20 Say: “Surely neither it is in my power to hurt you nor to bring you to the Right Way.” 21 Say: "Verily, no one could ever protect me from God, nor could I ever find a place to hide from Him 22 (My task is no more than) to deliver Allah's proclamation and His messages. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger, surely the Fire of Hell awaits him; therein he will abide in perpetuity.” 23 Till (the day) when they shall behold that which they are promised (they may doubt); but then they will know (for certain) who is weaker in allies and less in multitude. 24 Say, "I do not know whether what you are promised is imminent, or whether my Lord has set for it a far-off day. 25 He knows the unseen and He does not allow anyone to know His secrets except those of His Messengers whom He chooses. 26 Except whom He has approved of messengers, and indeed, He sends before each messenger and behind him observers 27 so as to make manifest that it is indeed [but] their Sustainer's messages that these [apostles] deliver: for it is He who encompasses [with His knowledge] all that they have [to say,] just as He takes count, one by one, of everything [that exists]. 28
