Say: "I do no more than invoke my Lord, and I join not with Him any (false god)." 20 Say: "It is not in my power to cause you harm, or to bring you to right conduct." 21 Say, "No one can protect me from God, nor can I find any place of refuge but with him. 22 Mine is but the publishing from Allah and His messages; and whosoever disobeyeth Allah and His apostle, his portion verily is the Hell-Fire as abiders therein for evermore. 23 Till the time when they will see what they are promised – so they will now come to know whose aide is weak, and who is lesser in number. 24 Say: "I know not whether the (Punishment) which ye are promised is near, or whether my Lord will appoint for it a distant term. 25 (He is) the Knower of the Unseen, and He revealeth unto none His secret, 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 if they have delivered their Lord's messages. He comprehends all that has been given them, and keeps count of everything. 28
