The unseenThe noble recorders
Kiraman Katibinكراما كاتبين
Two angels with every person, writing down every word and deed.
The Quran says there are noble guardians over every person, recording, who know what you do. One sits on the right and one on the left, and not a word is spoken without a watcher ready. On the Day of Judgement each person is handed the book they wrote.
What does the Quran say?
Man does not utter any word except that with him is an observer prepared [to record].
Quran 50:18
The lesson
Every day you are writing your own book.
