Say thou: I simply call upon Allah, and I associate not with Him any-one. 20 Say thou: verily I own not for you power of hurt nor of benefit 21 Say: Lo! none can protect me from Allah, nor can I find any refuge beside Him 22 “I only convey the commands from Allah, and His messages; and whoever disobeys the commands of Allah and His Noble Messenger – then indeed for him is the fire of hell, in which they will remain for ever and ever.” 23 Until they see what they are promised, when they will understand who is weaker in aid and poorer in numbers. 24 Say: “I know not whether what you are promised is near or whether my Lord will prolong its term. 25 He is the knower of the Unknown, and He does not divulge His secret to any one 26 Except to a Messenger (from mankind) whom He has chosen (He informs him of unseen as much as He likes), and then He makes a band of watching guards (angels) to march before him and behind him. 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
