This is what you wished to avert. 19 The trumpet will certainly be sounded. This will be the day (about which you) were threatened. 20 And every human being will come forward with [his erstwhile] inner urges and [his] conscious mind, 21 You were heedless of this, but now We have removed your veil, so your sight today is sharp. 22 His companion will say: "Here is (the record) I have ready with me." 23 [Whereupon God will command:] "Cast, cast into hell every [such] stubborn enemy of the truth, 24 Hinderer of good, trespasser, doubter 25 "Who set up another ilah (god) with Allah, then (both of you) cast him in the severe torment." 26 ۞ His Companion will say: "Our Lord! I did not make him transgress, but he was (himself) far astray." 27 He will say, “Do not dispute before Me – I had already warned you of the punishment.” 28 “With Me, the decree does not change, and nor do I oppress the bondmen.” 29
