Say: "I do no more than invoke my Lord, and I join not with Him any (false god)." 20 Say: 'Surely I possess no power over you, either for hurt or for rectitude.' 21 Say: “None can protect me from Allah, nor can I find a refuge apart from Him. 22 (My task is no more than) to deliver Allah's proclamation and His messages. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger, surely the Fire of Hell awaits him; therein he will abide in perpetuity.” 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: I do not know whether that with which you are threatened be nigh or whether my Lord will appoint for it a term: 25 "He (alone) knows the Unseen, nor does He make any one acquainted with His Mysteries,- 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 that He may know that they have truly delivered the messages of their Lord, and He encompasses what is with them and He records the number of all things. 28
