Say, [O Muhammad], "I only invoke my Lord and do not associate with Him anyone." 20 Say: 'Indeed, I possess no power over you, either for harm or for guidance' 21 Say: 'None shall protect me from Allah, and other than Him, I will find no 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 When they are confronted by what they have been promised, they will realize who is weaker in helpers and fewer in numbers. 24 Say, "I do not know whether what you are promised is imminent, or whether my Lord has set for it a far-off day. 25 (He is) the Knower of the Unseen, and He revealeth unto none His secret, 26 Except to him whom He chooses as an apostle; for surely He makes a guard to march before him and after him, 27 That He may know that they have preached the message of their Lord. And He comprehendeth whatever is with them, and He keepeth count of everything numbered. 28
