And indeed We have created man and We know what his soul instils in him; and We are nearer to him than the hearts artery. 16 [And so,] whenever the two demands [of his nature] come face to face, contending from the right and from the left, 17 He does not utter a single word, without a ready recorder seated next to him. 18 And the stupor of death will bring Truth (before his eyes): "This was the thing which thou wast trying to escape!" 19 And then the Trumpet was blown. This is the day of the promised chastisement. 20 And every soul will come, with it a driver and a witness. 21 (He will be told), "You were completely heedless of this day. We have removed the veil from your eyes and your vision will now be sharp and strong". 22 And his companion (angel) will say: "Here is (this Record) ready with me!" 23 'Cast, you twain, into Gehenna every froward unbeliever, 24 Hinderer of good, transgressor, doubter, 25 Who made [as equal] with Allah another deity; then throw him into the severe punishment." 26 ۞ His companion said: “I did not incite him to rebel; he was far gone into error of his own accord.” 27 The Lord will say, "Do not argue in My presence; I had certainly sent you a warning. 28 The word will not be changed with Me, and never will I be unjust to the servants." 29
