(Muhammad), say, "I worship only my Lord and do not consider anyone equal to Him". 20 Say: 'Surely I possess no power over you, either for hurt or for rectitude.' 21 Say (O Muhammad SAW): "None can protect me from Allah's punishment (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 When they are confronted by what they have been promised, they will realize who is weaker in helpers and fewer in numbers. 24 Say (O dear Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him), “I do not know whether what you are promised is close or if my Lord will postpone it for a while.” 25 Knower He of the Unseen, and He discloses not His Unseen to anyone, 26 Except whom He has approved of messengers, and indeed, He sends before each messenger and behind him observers 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
