(Muhammad), say, "I worship only my Lord and do not consider anyone equal to Him". 20 Say, "Indeed, I do not possess for you [the power of] harm or right direction." 21 Say: "No one can save me from God, nor can I find a place of refuge apart from Him, 22 except a deliverance from Allah and His Messages. He who disobeys Allah and His Messenger, for him is the Fire of Gehenna, which he will be in for ever. 23 Till (the day) when they shall behold that which they are promised (they may doubt); but then they will know (for certain) who is weaker in allies and less in multitude. 24 Say (O Muhammad SAW): "I know not whether (the punishment) which you are promised is near or whether my Lord will appoint for it a distant term. 25 He alone has knowledge of what is hidden. He reveals this to none, 26 Save unto an apostle chosen. And then He causeth to go before him and behind him a guard. 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
