Chapter 72, Page 573, Juz 29

20. Say, “I invoke my Lord, and do not associate anyone with Him.” 21. Say, “I possess no power to cause you any harm or bring you to a right way.” 22. Say, “No one can ever save me from Allah, and I can never find a refuge save with Him. 23. However, (I have been given power) of conveying (commands) from Allah, and His messages. The one who disobeys Allah and His Messenger, for him there is the fire of Hell, wherein such people will live forever. 24. (The disbelievers will continue denying the truth and mock at it) until when they will see what they are promised, they will know whose supporters are weaker, and whose numbers are less. 25. Say, “I do not know whether that which you are promised is near, or my Lord has appointed for it a distant term. 26. (He is the) Knower of the Unseen. So He does not let anyone know the Unseen created by Him, 27. except a messenger whom He chooses (to inform through revelation), and then He appoints (angels as) watching guards before him and behind him, (so that devils may not tamper with the divine revelation,) 28. so that He knows that they (angels) have conveyed the messages of their Lord. And He has encompassed all that is with them, and has comprehensive knowledge of every thing by numbers.
