Amir-ul-Momineen -asws : Allah -azwj Says: We shall set up scales for justice on the Resurrection Day, thus no soul will be subjected to slightest cruelty (21:47). This will be that scale of Justice which will be used to question people about their affairs regarding Allah -azwj ’s religion. And some of His representatives -asws will question the deeds of others and give them reward/punishment accordingly. And aggressors will be made to pay for their cruelties committed against their victims.

The meanings of ‘whose scales are heavier’ and ‘whose scales are lighter’ are for those who will have to go through extensive scrutiny whereas the others will be subjected to very little scrutiny, respectively. People will be divided into various sectors based on their respective status. There will be a few, who will face short and convenient scrutiny and join their near ones with ease and happiness.

[30] There will also be the ones who will go to Paradise without having to go through any accountability whatsoever; this is because they did not indulge into worldly affairs. Indeed, the more one would indulge into the mortal world, the more scrutiny he will face in the hereafter. There will also be those, however, who will be quizzed on minor offences [31] and find their way into the raging fire.

Among them will be the implanters of Kufr (leaders of non-believers) and devious leaders, who will loose all their authority on that Day and none of their ‘Amr or Nahi’ (good advice and caution on evil) will be considered and they will permanently made to reside in the Hell. Fire will burn their faces and their bodies and they will remain engulfed in the flames.
