Say: I only call upon my Lord, and I do not associate any one with Him. 20 Say thou: verily I own not for you power of hurt nor of benefit 21 Say, "Surely no one can protect me against God, nor can I find besides Him any place of refuge. 22 Unless I convey from God and deliver His message." For those who disobey God and His Apostle is the fire of Hell, where they will abide for ever; 23 (They shall not change their ways) until they see that against which they had been warned, and then they will know whose helpers are weaker and whose supporters are fewer in number. 24 Say: I do not know whether that with which you are threatened be nigh or whether my Lord will appoint for it a term: 25 The Knower of the unseen! so He does not reveal His secrets to any, 26 Except whom He has approved of messengers, and indeed, He sends before each messenger and behind him observers 27 In order to see that they have conveyed the messages of their Lord – and His knowledge encompasses all whatever they have, and He has kept all things accounted for. 28
