We indeed created man; and We know what his soul whispers within him, and We are nearer to him than the jugular vein. 16 [And so,] whenever the two demands [of his nature] come face to face, contending from the right and from the left, 17 He utters not a word, but there is a vigilant watcher at hand. 18 And the agony of death cometh in truth. (And it is said unto him): This is that which thou wast wont to shun. 19 And the Horn shall be blown; that is the Day of Threat! 20 And every human being will come forward with [his erstwhile] inner urges and [his] conscious mind, 21 (It will be said:) "Thou wast heedless of this; now have We removed thy veil, and sharp is thy sight this Day!" 22 His companion said: “Here is he who was in my charge.” 23 (And it is said): Do ye twain hurl to hell each rebel ingrate, 24 "Hinderer of good, transgressor, 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 He shall say, 'Dispute not before Me! For I sent you beforehand -- the threat. 28 No word is to be exchanged in My presence. I am not unjust to My servants". 29
