Say: "I invoke my Sustainer alone, for I do not ascribe divinity to anyone beside Him." 20 Say: 'Surely I possess no power over you, either for hurt or for rectitude.' 21 Say: "No one can deliver me from Allah (If I were to disobey Him), nor should I find refuge except in Him, 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, when they see that which they are promised, then they will know who it is that is weaker concerning helpers and less important concerning numbers. 24 Say, "I do not know if what you are promised is near or if my Lord will grant for it a [long] period." 25 The All Knowing of all the hidden does not give anyone the control over His secrets. 26 except only to a Messenger that He has chosen, and He sends guardians before him and behind him, 27 That he may know that they have conveyed the messages of their Lord; and He has encompassed whatever is with them and has enumerated all things in number. 28
