We created man -- We know the promptings of his soul, and are closer to him than his jugular vein -- 16 When the two Receivers receive (him), seated on the right hand and on the left, 17 not even a word can he utter but there is a watcher with him, ever-present. 18 And death's agony comes in truth; that is what thou wast shunning! 19 And the trumpet will be blown: this is the Day of the Threatening. 20 Each person will arrive attended by an [angel] to drive him on and another to bear witness. 21 You were heedless of this, but now We have removed your veil, so your sight today is sharp. 22 And his companions shall say: This is what is ready with me. 23 The command was given: “Cast into Hell every hardened, stubborn unbeliever, 24 Hinderer of good, transgressor, doubter, 25 Who made [as equal] with Allah another deity; then throw him into the severe punishment." 26 ۞ And his companion shall say: 'Our Lord, I did not make him insolent, he was far astray' 27 He shall say, 'Dispute not before Me! For I sent you beforehand -- the threat. 28 “With Me, the decree does not change, and nor do I oppress the bondmen.” 29
