Say: I only call upon my Lord, and I do not associate any one with Him. 20 Say, "I do not possess any power to harm or benefit you". 21 Say: "No one can save me from God, nor can I find a place of refuge apart from Him, 22 My only (means of protection) is to convey the message of God. Whoever disobeys God and His Messenger will go to hell, wherein he will live 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 whether that [doom] of which you were forewarned is near, or whether my Sustainer has set for it a distant term." 25 The All Knowing of all the hidden does not give anyone the control over His secrets. 26 Other than an apostle He has chosen, when He makes a sentinel walk in front of him and a sentinel behind, 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
