The beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم also said, “The night also says this when it arrives.”^[1]

4. Kirāman Kātibīn

The fourth witnesses on the Day of Judgement are the noble scribe angels who record our deeds, Kirāman Kātibīn. Allah states:

وَ  اِنَّ عَلَیْکُمْ  لَحٰفِظِیْنَ (ۙ۱۰) کِرَامًا  کَاتِبِیْنَ (ۙ۱۱) یَعْلَمُوْنَ مَا تَفْعَلُوْنَ (۱۲)

And surely, there are guardians appointed over you, honourable scribes. They know whatever you do.^[2]

The final Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said:

Man is oblivious to his purpose in life. When Allah intends to create a human, He commands the angel, “Write his sustenance and his time of death.” The angel writes this and leaves. Then another angel is appointed who protects the child until he is born. When the child is born, two angels are stationed with him who record his good and bad deeds until he dies, and they go to the heavens once he dies. On the Day of Judgement, the angels will return to him and place his book of deeds around his neck. One angel will take him to the Plain of Judgement, and the other will be his witness.”^[3]

5. Book of Deeds

The fifth witness on the Day of Judgement will be our book of deeds, which Kirāman Kātibīn are continuously writing in. Every major and minor deed is recorded therein. The Companion of the Prophet, Sayyidunā Anas
