Say: "I invoke my Sustainer alone, for I do not ascribe divinity to anyone beside Him." 20 Say thou: verily I own not for you power of hurt nor of benefit 21 Say, “No one will ever save me from Allah, and other than Him, I will not find any refuge.” 22 if I should fail to convey [to the world whatever illumination comes to me] from God and His messages." Now as for him who rebels against God and His Apostle - verily, the fire of hell awaits him, therein to abide beyond the count of time. 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 (O Muhammad, unto the disbelievers): I know not whether that which ye are promised is nigh, or if my Lord hath set a distant term for it. 25 He is the Knower of the Unseen and does not disclose His Unseen to anyone, 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
