Say thou: I simply call upon Allah, and I associate not with Him any-one. 20 Say, "Indeed, I do not possess for you [the power of] harm or right direction." 21 Say: 'None shall protect me from Allah, and other than Him, I will find 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 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 the (Punishment) which ye are promised is near, or whether my Lord will appoint for it a distant term. 25 He alone has knowledge of what is hidden. He reveals this to none, 26 except the messenger whom He has chosen. He sends down guardians who walk before them and behind them, 27 In order to see that they have conveyed the messages of their Lord – and His knowledge encompasses all whatever they have, and He has kept all things accounted for. 28
