Say: "I do no more than invoke my Lord, and I join not with Him any (false god)." 20 Say thou: verily I own not for you power of hurt nor of benefit 21 Say, "No one can protect me from God, nor can I find any place of refuge but with him. 22 But [I have for you] only notification from Allah, and His messages." And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger - then indeed, for him is the fire of Hell; they will abide therein forever. 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, "I do not know if what you are promised is near or if my Lord will grant for it a [long] period." 25 [He is] Knower of the unseen, and He does not disclose His [knowledge of the] unseen to anyone 26 save only to such a Messenger as He is well-pleased with; then He despatches before him and behind him watchers, 27 "That He may know that they have (truly) brought and delivered the Messages of their Lord: and He surrounds (all the mysteries) that are with them, and takes account of every single thing." 28
