(Muhammad), say, "I worship only my Lord and do not consider anyone equal to Him". 20 Say: I do not control for you evil or good. 21 Say thou: verily none can protect me from Allah, nor can I find beside Him any refuge. 22 "Unless I proclaim what I receive from Allah and His Messages: for any that disobey Allah and His Messenger,- for them is Hell: they shall dwell therein for ever." 23 Till, when they see that which they are promised, then they will know who it is that is weaker concerning helpers and less important concerning numbers. 24 Say: 'I do not know whether that which you are promised is near, or whether my Lord will set for it a time. 25 He is the Knower of the Unseen, and He does not disclose His Unseen to anyone 26 Except to him whom He chooses as an apostle; for surely He makes a guard to march before him and after him, 27 [He (Allah) protects them (the Messengers)], till He sees that they (the Messengers) have conveyed the Messages of their Lord (Allah). And He (Allah) surrounds all that which is with them, and He (Allah) keeps count of all things (i.e. He knows the exact number of everything). 28
