Say: 'I supplicate only to my Lord and I do not associate any with Him' 20 Say: 'Indeed, I possess no power over you, either for harm or for guidance' 21 Say: Lo! none can protect me from Allah, nor can I find any refuge beside Him 22 But [I have for you] only notification from Allah, and His messages." And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger - then indeed, for him is the fire of Hell; they will abide therein forever. 23 [Let them, then, wait] until the time when they behold that [doom] of which they were forewarned: for then they will come to understand which [kind of man] is more helpless and counts for less! 24 Say: "I do not know if what is promised you is near, or if my Lord prolongs its term. 25 He alone has knowledge of what is hidden. He reveals this to none, 26 Except to His chosen Noble Messengers – so He appoints guards in front and behind him. (Allah gave the knowledge of the hidden to the Holy Prophet – peace and blessings be upon him.) 27 That He may know that they have preached the message of their Lord. And He comprehendeth whatever is with them, and He keepeth count of everything numbered. 28
