And indeed We have created man and We know what his soul instils in him; and We are nearer to him than the hearts artery. 16 When the two receiving angels receive from him, one seated 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 And when the agony of death comes in truth (they will say): 'This is what you have been trying to avoid' 19 And the trumpet will be blown: this is the Day of the Threatening. 20 And there will come forth every soul: with each will be an (angel) to drive, and an (angel) to bear witness. 21 You were heedless of this. Now We have removed your veil and so your vision today is sharp. 22 His (angelic) companion will say, "(Lord), the record of his deeds is with me and is all ready". 23 (They will be told,) "Throw into hell every persistent disbelievers, 24 Hinderer of good, trespasser, doubter 25 who has set up another deity beside God: cast him, then, cast him into suffering severe!" 26 ۞ His companion will say: Our Lord! I did not lead him into inordinacy but he himself was in a great error. 27 The Lord will say, "Do not argue in My presence; I had certainly sent you a warning. 28 The Sentence that comes from Me cannot be changed, and I am not unjust (to the least) to the slaves." 29
