Say: 'I call only upon my Lord, and I do not associate with Him anyone. 20 Say: Lo! I control not hurt nor benefit for you. 21 Say: 'From God shall protect me not anyone, and I shall find, apart from Him, no refuge, 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 dear Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him), “I do not know whether what you are promised is close or if my Lord will postpone it for a while.” 25 Knower He of the Unseen, and He discloses not His Unseen to anyone, 26 He causes angelic guards to march before 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
