Section 2

16.
Walaqad khalaqna al-insana wanaAAlamu ma tuwaswisu bihi nafsuhu wanahnu aqrabu ilayhi min habli alwareedI

16.
It was We Who

Created man, and We know

What dark suggestions his soul

Makes to him: for We

Are nearer to him

Than (his) jugular vein.

17.
Ith yatalaqqa almutalaqqiyani AAani alyameeni waAAani aLshshimali qaAAeedUn

17.
Behold, two (guardian angels)

Appointed to learn (his doings)

Learn (and note them),

One sitting on the right

And one on the left.

18.
Ma yalfi"th"u min qawlin illa ladayhi raqeebun AAateedUn

18.
Not a word does he

Utter but there is

A sentinel by him,

Ready (to note it).

19.
Wajaat sakratu almawti biAlhaqqi thalika ma kunta minhu taheedU

19.
And the stupor of death

Will bring truth (before

His eyes
): "This was

The thing which thou

Wast trying to escape!
"

20. Wanufikha fee aLssoori thalika yawmu alwaAAeedI

20. And the Trumpet

Shall be blown:


That will be the Day

Wher Warning (had been given).

21.
Wajaat kullu nafsin maAAaha sa-iqun washaheedUn

21.
And there will come forth

Every soul: with each

Will be an (angel) to drive,

And an (angel) to

Bear witness.

22.
Laqad kunta fee ghaflatin min hatha fakashafna AAanka ghitaaka fabasaruka alyawma hadeedUn

22.
(It will be said:)

"Thou wast heedless

Of this; now have We

Removed thy veil,

And sharp is thy sight

This Day!
"

23. Waqala qareenuhu hatha ma ladayya AAateedUn

23. And his Companion will say:


"Here is (his Record) ready

With me!
"

24. Alqiya fee jahannama kulla kaffarin AAaneedIn

24.
(The sentence will be:)

"Throw, throw into Hell

Every contumacious Rejecter

(Of God)!--

25.
MannaAAin lilkhayri muAAtadin mureebIn

25.
\"Who forbade what was good,

Transgressed all bounds,

Cast doubts and suspicions;

26.
Allathee jaAAala maAAa Allahi ilahan akhara faalqiyahu fee alAAathabi aLshshadeedI

26.
\"Who set up another god

Beside God: throw him

Into a severe Penalty."

27. Qala qareenuhu rabbana ma atghaytuhu walakin kana fee dalalin baAAeedIn

27. His Companion will say:


"Our Lord! I did not

Make him transgress,

But he was (himself)

Far astray.
"

28. Qala la takhtasimoo ladayya waqad qaddamtu ilaykum biAlwaAAeedI

28.
He will say: "Dispute not

With each other

In My Presence:


I had already in advance

Sent you Warning.

29.
Ma yubaddalu alqawlu ladayya wama ana bi"th"allamin lilAAabeedI

29.
\"The Word changes not

Before Me, and I do not

The least injustice

To My Servants."
