Say: 'I call only upon my Lord, and I do not associate with Him anyone. 20 Say: I do not control for you evil or good. 21 Say thou: verily none can protect me from Allah, nor can I find beside Him any refuge. 22 "Unless I proclaim what I receive from Allah and His Messages: for any that disobey Allah and His Messenger,- for them is Hell: they shall dwell therein for ever." 23 Till (the day) when they shall behold that which they are promised (they may doubt); but then they will know (for certain) who is weaker in allies and less in multitude. 24 Say: “I know not whether what you are promised is near or whether my Lord will prolong its term. 25 He is the Knower of the unseen, and He discloseth not His unseen unto anyone. 26 Other than an apostle He has chosen, when He makes a sentinel walk in front of him and a sentinel behind, 27 (Messenger) so that He would know that the Messengers have conveyed the message of their Lord. He encompasses all that is with them and He keeps a precise account of all things". 28
