Say: I only call upon my Lord, and I do not associate any one with Him. 20 Say thou: verily I own not for you power of hurt nor of benefit 21 Say thou: verily none can protect me from Allah, nor can I find beside Him any refuge. 22 "(Mine is) but conveyance (of the truth) from Allah and His Messages (of Islamic Monotheism), and whosoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger, then verily, for him is the Fire of Hell, he shall dwell therein forever." 23 (They shall not change their ways) until they see that against which they had been warned, and then they will know whose helpers are weaker and whose supporters are fewer in number. 24 Say: "I do not know if what is promised you is near, or if my Lord prolongs its term. 25 He is the Knower of the unseen, and He discloseth not His unseen unto anyone. 26 Save unto every messenger whom He hath chosen, and then He maketh a guard to go before him and a guard behind him 27 [He (Allah) protects them (the Messengers)], till He sees that they (the Messengers) have conveyed the Messages of their Lord (Allah). And He (Allah) surrounds all that which is with them, and He (Allah) keeps count of all things (i.e. He knows the exact number of everything). 28
