Say thou: I simply call upon Allah, and I associate not with Him any-one. 20 Say: Lo! I control not hurt nor benefit for you. 21 Say: 'None shall protect me from Allah, and other than Him, I will find no refuge, 22 excepting a Deliverance from God and His Messages. And whoso rebels against God and His messenger, for him there awaits the Fire of Gehenna; therein they shall dwell forever.' 23 Till the time when they will see what they are promised – so they will now come to know whose aide is weak, and who is lesser in number. 24 Say: “I know not whether what you are promised is near or whether my Lord will prolong its term. 25 The All Knowing of all the hidden does not give anyone the control over His secrets. 26 "Except a messenger whom He has chosen: and then He makes a band of watchers march before him and behind him, 27 (Messenger) so that He would know that the Messengers have conveyed the message of their Lord. He encompasses all that is with them and He keeps a precise account of all things". 28
