And indeed We have created man, and We know what his ownself whispers to him. And We are nearer to him than his jugular vein (by Our Knowledge). 16 When both receivers (the angels) receive, one on his right, the other on his 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; that is what you were trying to escape. 19 The trumpet will be sounded. This is the Day [you were] warned of. 20 And there shall come every soul therewith shall be a driver and a witness. 21 [It will be said], "You were certainly in unmindfulness of this, and We have removed from you your cover, so your sight, this Day, 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 who is an opponent of good, a suspicious transgressor 25 who has set up another god besides God: cast him into severe punishment" -- 26 ۞ His companion will say: "O Lord, I did not lead him to wickedness, but he was himself far astray." 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
