16. 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). 17. (Remember) that the two receivers (recording angels) receive (each human being), one sitting on the right and one on the left (to note his or her actions). 18. Not a word does he (or she) utter but there is a watcher by him ready (to record it). 19. And the stupor of death will come in truth: "This is what you have been avoiding!" 20. And the Trumpet will be blown - that will be the Day whereof warning (had been given) (i.e. the Day of Resurrection). 21. And every person will come forth along with an (angel) to drive (him) and an (angel) to bear witness. 22. (It will be said to the sinners): "Indeed you were heedless of this. Now We have removed from you your covering, and sharp is your sight this Day!" 23. And his companion (angel) will say: "Here is (this Record) ready with me!" 24. (Allah will say to the angels): "Both of you throw into Hell every stubborn disbeliever (in the Oneness of Allâh, in His Messengers). 25. "Hinderer of good, transgressor, doubter, 26. "Who set up another ilâh (god) with Allâh. Then both of you cast him in the severe torment." 27. His companion (Satan - devil)] will say: "Our Lord! I did not push him to transgression, (in disbelief, oppression, and evil deeds) but he was himself in error far astray." 28. Allâh will say: "Dispute not in front of Me, I had already in advance sent you the threat. 29. The Sentence that comes from Me cannot be changed, and I am not unjust to the slaves."
