Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

The Angel will bear Witness; Allah commands that the Disbeliever be thrown into the FireAllah the Exalted states that the scribe angel, who is entrusted with recording the deeds of mankind, will testify against him or her about the deeds he or she did on the Day of Resurrection. He will say,هَـذَا مَا لَدَىَّ عَتِيدٌ("Here is (his record) ready with me!"), here it is prepared and completed without addition or deletion.
