Say thou: I simply call upon Allah, and I associate not with Him any-one. 20 Say: 'Indeed, I possess no power over you, either for harm or for guidance' 21 Say, "No one can protect me from God, nor can I find any place of refuge but with him. 22 "Unless I proclaim what I receive from Allah and His Messages: for any that disobey Allah and His Messenger,- for them is Hell: they shall dwell therein for ever." 23 Until they see what they are promised, when they will understand who is weaker in aid and poorer in numbers. 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 is) the Knower of the Unseen, and He revealeth unto none His secret, 26 Except to him whom He chooses as an apostle; for surely He makes a guard to march before him and after 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
