Say, "I call only upon my Lord and do not associate anyone else with Him." 20 Say: 'Indeed, I possess no power over you, either for harm or for guidance' 21 Say: "No one can save me from God, nor can I find a place of refuge apart from 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 They shall go on denying until they; behold that which they are promised wherefore then they shall know who were weaker in protectors and fewer in number. 24 Say: "I do not know whether that [doom] of which you were forewarned is near, or whether my Sustainer has set for it a distant term." 25 (He is) the Knower of the Unseen, and He revealeth unto none His secret, 26 except only to a Messenger that He has chosen, and He sends guardians before him and behind him, 27 [He (Allah) protects them (the Messengers)], till He sees that they (the Messengers) have conveyed the Messages of their Lord (Allah). And He (Allah) surrounds all that which is with them, and He (Allah) keeps count of all things (i.e. He knows the exact number of everything). 28
