Say: "I do no more than invoke my Lord, and I join not with Him any (false god)." 20 Say: "Neither is your loss within my power nor bringing you to guidance." 21 Say, "No one can protect me from God, nor can I find any place of refuge but with him. 22 (My task is no more than) to deliver Allah's proclamation and His messages. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger, surely the Fire of Hell awaits him; therein he will abide in perpetuity.” 23 When they see that which they were promised they shall know who is weaker in helpers and fewer in numbers. 24 Say: 'I do not know whether that which you are promised is near, or whether my Lord will set for it a time. 25 He is the Knower of the Unseen, and He does not disclose His Unseen to anyone 26 except only to a Messenger that He has chosen, and He sends guardians before him and behind him, 27 so as to make manifest that it is indeed [but] their Sustainer's messages that these [apostles] deliver: for it is He who encompasses [with His knowledge] all that they have [to say,] just as He takes count, one by one, of everything [that exists]. 28
