Say: 'I supplicate only to my Lord and I do not associate any with Him' 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 excepting a Deliverance from God and His Messages. And whoso rebels against God and His messenger, for him there awaits the Fire of Gehenna; therein they shall dwell forever.' 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 thou: I know not whether that which ye are promised is nigh, or whether my Lord hath appointed for it a distant term. 25 He is the Knower of the unseen, and He discloseth not His unseen unto anyone. 26 Except whom He has approved of messengers, and indeed, He sends before each messenger and behind him observers 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
