17 When the two receivers receive, sitting on the right and on the left,

18 He utters not a word but there is by him a watcher at hand.

19 And the stupor of death comes in truth; that is what thou wouldst shun.

20 And the trumpet is blown. That is the day of threatening.

21 And every soul comes, with it a driver and a witness.

22 Thou wast indeed heedless of this, but now We have removed from thee thy veil, so thy sight is sharp this day.

23 And his companion will say: This is what is ready with me.

24 Cast into hell every ungrateful, rebellious one,

25 Forbidder of good, exceeder of limits, doubter,

26 Who sets up another god with Allāh, so cast him into severe chastisement.

27 His companion will say: Our Lord, I did not cause him to rebel but he himself went far in error.

28 He will say: Dispute not in My presence, and indeed I gave you warning beforehand.

29 My sentence cannot be changed, nor am I in the least unjust to the servants.

30 On the day when We say to hell: Art thou filled up? And it will say: Are there any more?

31 And the Garden is brought near for those who guard against evil — (it is) not distant.

32 This is what you are promised — for everyone turning (to Allāh), keeping (the limits) —

33 Who fears the Beneficent in secret, and comes with a penitent heart:

34 Enter it in peace. That is the day of abiding.

35 For them therein is all they wish, and with Us is yet more.

36 And how many a generation We destroyed before them who were mightier in prowess than they! so they went about in the lands. Is
