NOW, VERILY, it is We who have created man, and We know what his innermost self whispers within him: for We are closer to him than his neck-vein. 16 When the two angels meet together, sitting one on the right, and one on the left, 17 Man does not utter any word except that with him is an observer prepared [to record]. 18 The trance of death will come revealing the truth: that is what you were trying to escape. 19 And the Horn will be blown. That is the Day of [carrying out] the threat. 20 And every soul cometh, along with it a driver and a 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 His companion attendant will say, "I have here his record ready." 23 'Cast, you twain, into Gehenna every froward unbeliever, 24 Forbidder of good, exceeder of limits, doubter, 25 Who set up with Allah another god. So cast him ye twain into the torment severe. 26 ۞ His companion will say: O our Lord! caused him not to transgress but he was himself in error far off. 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
