Paper-cut picture from Surah Al-Qiyamah: a single lantern lighting up every corner of a quiet empty room at night, its warm light reaching the walls and floor
Al-Qiyamah 75:11–15

Man knows himself

كَلَّا لَا وَزَرَ ١١ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ ٱلْمُسْتَقَرُّ ١٢ يُنَبَّؤُا۟ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ يَوْمَئِذٍۭ بِمَا قَدَّمَ وَأَخَّرَ ١٣ بَلِ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِۦ بَصِيرَةٌۭ ١٤ وَلَوْ أَلْقَىٰ مَعَاذِيرَهُۥ ١٥

The meaning, simply

There is no escape and no shelter; on that Day the return is to your Lord. Man will be told of all he did and all he left undone. In fact, man is a witness against himself, even if he brings every excuse.
