Hadiths and Verses on the Recording Angels

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Are there any authentic hadiths, or interpretations of the verses, regarding the recording of the angels who are with a human being? This is in the Qur'an, in the saying of Allah the Exalted:
Man does not utter any word except that with him is an observer prepared [to record].مَّا يَلْفِظُ مِن قَوْلٍ إِلَّا لَدَيْهِ رَقِيبٌ عَتِيدٌ
[Qaf 50:18]
, one on the right and one on the right

Answer:
What is uttered. Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He, said:
(16) And We have already created man and know what his soul whispers to him, and We are closer to him than [his] jugular vein (17) When the two receivers receive, seated on the right and on the left.وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ وَنَعْلَمُ مَا تُوَسْوِسُ بِهِ نَفْسُهُ وَنَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ حَبْلِ الْوَرِيدِ إِذْ يَتَلَقَّى الْمُتَلَقِّيَانِ
[Qaf 50:16-17]
There are two angels, one on the right and one on the left. So the two recording angels are one on the right and one on the left; this is in the Noble Qur'an.
