(Muhammad), say, "I worship only my Lord and do not consider anyone equal to Him". 20 Say: "Neither is your loss within my power nor bringing you to guidance." 21 Say thou: verily none can protect me from Allah, nor can I find beside Him any refuge. 22 Mine is but the publishing from Allah and His messages; and whosoever disobeyeth Allah and His apostle, his portion verily is the Hell-Fire as abiders therein for evermore. 23 (On the Day of Judgment) when the disbelievers witness that with which they have been threatened, they will then know whose helpers are weaker and fewer in number. 24 Say, "I do not know if what you are promised is near or if my Lord will grant for it a [long] period." 25 He is the Knower of the Unseen and does not disclose His Unseen to anyone, 26 Other than an apostle He has chosen, when He makes a sentinel walk in front of him and a sentinel behind, 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
