Say: 'I supplicate only to my Lord and I do not associate any with Him' 20 Say, "I do not possess any power to harm or benefit you". 21 Say: "No one can deliver me from Allah (If I were to disobey Him), nor should I find refuge except in Him, 22 My duty is only to convey that which I receive from Him and His messages." For those who disobey God and His Messenger there is the fire of hell, wherein they will abide forever. 23 Until, when they see that which they are promised, then they will 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 [alone] knows that which is beyond the reach of a created being's perception, and to none does He disclose aught of the mysteries of His Own unfathomable knowledge, 26 except only to a Messenger that He has chosen, and He sends guardians before him and behind him, 27 That he may know that they have conveyed the messages of their Lord; and He has encompassed whatever is with them and has enumerated all things in number. 28
