We created man -- We know the promptings of his soul, and are closer to him than his jugular vein -- 16 Behold! when the two receivers receive - one on the right hand and one on the left a sitter. 17 Not a word does he utter but there is a sentinel by him, ready (to note it). 18 And the stupor of death will bring Truth (before his eyes): "This was the thing which thou wast trying to escape!" 19 And the Trumpet shall be blown: that will be the Day whereof Warning (had been given). 20 Every soul will be accompanied (by an angel) behind him and another as 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 His companion attendant will say, "I have here his record ready." 23 [Allah will say], "Throw into Hell every obstinate disbeliever, 24 who hinders good, exceeds the limits, is immersed in doubts, 25 Who made [as equal] with Allah another deity; then throw him into the severe punishment." 26 ۞ His companion will say: "O Lord, I did not lead him to wickedness, but he was himself far astray." 27 (It was said): “Do not remonstrate in My presence. I had warned you. 28 My Word is not changed; and never do I inflict the least wrong upon My servants.” 29
