He created man and surely know what misdoubts arise in their hearts; for 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 each word he utters shall be noted down by a vigilant guardian. 18 And the stupor of death will come in truth: "This is what you have been avoiding!" 19 And the trumpet blast will sound: It would be the Day of Doom. 20 Each soul will come with a driver and a witness. 21 “You were indeed neglectful of this, so We have removed the veil for you, and your eyesight is sharp this day.” 22 And (unto the evil-doer) his comrade saith: This is that which I have ready (as testimony). 23 Cast ye twain into Hell every person rebellious, contumacious. 24 hinderer of good, transgressor, causing others to doubt, 25 Who had set up another god with God. Cast him into severe torment." 26 ۞ And his comrade shall say, 'Our Lord, I made him not insolent, but he was in far error.' 27 [And] He will say: "Contend not before Me, [O you sinners,] for I gave you a forewarning [of this Day of Reckoning]. 28 My Word is not changed; and never do I inflict the least wrong upon My servants.” 29
