This is the Day [you were] warned of. 20 And every soul will come, with it a driver and a witness. 21 (And the driver will say:) "You were oblivious of this, so we have removed the veil, and how keen is your sight today!" 22 And his companion, [the angel], will say, "This [record] is what is with me, prepared." 23 'Cast, you twain, into Gehenna every froward unbeliever, 24 "Hinderer of good, transgressor, doubter, 25 "Who set up another god beside Allah: Throw him into a severe penalty." 26 ۞ His companion will say: O our Lord! caused him not to transgress but he was himself in error far off. 27 [Allah] will say, "Do not dispute before Me, while I had already presented to you the warning. 28 The Word cannot be changed with Me; I do not wrong My worshipers' 29
