Say, (O Prophet): “I call on my Lord alone, and I do not associate aught with Him in His Divinity.” 20 Say thou: verily I own not for you power of hurt nor of benefit 21 Say: "Verily, no one could ever protect me from God, nor could I ever find a place to hide 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 (On the Day of Judgment) when the disbelievers witness that with which they have been threatened, they will then know whose helpers are weaker and fewer in number. 24 Say: 'I do not know whether that which you are promised is near, or whether my Lord will set for it a time. 25 The Knower of the unseen! so He does not reveal His secrets to any, 26 Save unto an apostle chosen. And then He causeth to go before him and behind him a guard. 27 so as to make manifest that it is indeed [but] their Sustainer's messages that these [apostles] deliver: for it is He who encompasses [with His knowledge] all that they have [to say,] just as He takes count, one by one, of everything [that exists]. 28
