We created man -- We know the promptings of his soul, and are closer to him than his jugular vein -- 16 When the two receiving angels receive from him, one seated on the right and one on 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 come in truth: this is that which thou hast been shunning. 19 And the trumpet is blown. This is the threatened Day. 20 Everyone has come, each attended by one who will drive him on, and another who will 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 companions shall say: This is what is ready with me. 23 (And it will be said): "Both of you throw (Order from Allah to the two angels) into Hell, every stubborn disbeliever (in the Oneness of Allah, in His Messengers, etc.). 24 hinderer of good, transgressor, causing others to doubt, 25 who has set up another god besides God: cast him into severe punishment" -- 26 ۞ And his comrade shall say, 'Our Lord, I made him not insolent, but he was in far error.' 27 He (Allah) will say: 'Do not dispute before Me. I sent you a warning beforehand. 28 There is no changing of My word, nor am I unjust to My creatures." 29
