And We have already created man and know what his soul whispers to him, and We are closer to him than [his] jugular vein 16 When both receivers (the angels) receive, one on his right, the other on his left, 17 Not a word does he utter but there is a sentinel by him, ready (to note it). 18 And the agony of death cometh in truth. (And it is said unto him): This is that which thou wast wont to shun. 19 And the Horn shall be blown; that is the Day of Threat! 20 And there will come forth every soul: with each will be an (angel) to drive, and an (angel) to bear witness. 21 (It will be said to the sinners): "Indeed you were heedless of this, now We have removed your covering, and sharp is your sight this Day!" 22 And his companion will say: this is that which with me is ready. 23 Do cast into hell every ungrateful, rebellious one, 24 "Every obstructor of good, transgressor, and the sceptic, 25 "Who set up another ilah (god) with Allah, then (both of you) cast him in the severe torment." 26 ۞ His satanic companion will say, "Our Lord, I did not mislead him, but he himself went astray". 27 (It was said): “Do not remonstrate in My presence. I had warned you. 28 and My word shall not be changed, nor am I unjust to My servants." 29
