Say thou: I simply call upon Allah, and I associate not with Him any-one. 20 Say: 'Surely I possess no power over you, either for hurt or for rectitude.' 21 Say: "No one can deliver me from Allah (If I were to disobey Him), nor should I find refuge except in Him, 22 (Mine is) but conveyance (of the Truth) from Allah, and His messages; and whoso disobeyeth Allah and His messenger, lo! his is fire of hell, wherein such dwell for ever. 23 Until when they see what they are threatened with, then shall they know who is weaker in helpers and fewer in number. 24 (Muhammad), say, "I do not know whether that with which you have been threatened is close by or whether my Lord will prolong the time of its coming. 25 He is the knower of the Unknown, and He does not divulge His secret to any one 26 Save unto an apostle chosen. And then He causeth to go before him and behind him a guard. 27 that He may know they have delivered the Messages of their Lord; and He encompasses all that is with them, and He has numbered everything in numbers.' 28
