Say: "I do no more than invoke my Lord, and I join not with Him any (false god)." 20 Say: 'Surely I possess no power over you, either for hurt or for rectitude.' 21 Say: Lo! none can protect me from Allah, nor can I find any refuge beside Him 22 (It is) only a delivering (of communications) from Allah and His messages; and whoever disobeys Allah and His Apostle surely he shall have the fire of hell to abide therein for a long time. 23 Till the time when they will see what they are promised – so they will now come to know whose aide is weak, and who is lesser in number. 24 Say: 'I do not know whether that which you are promised is nigh, or whether my Lord will appoint for it a space; 25 "He (alone) knows the Unseen, nor does He make any one acquainted with His Mysteries,- 26 except the messenger whom He has chosen. He sends down guardians who walk before them and behind them, 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
