(Surah-al-Qamar ...

(Surah-al-Qamar : 52,53) Shaikh Sadooq relates in “E'eteqadatul Imamiyah”, that once the Commander of the faithful Ali (A.S.) passed by some youths who were busy in vain and useless gossip, and wre laughing. He (A.S.) said, “Why do you blacken your scrolls (of deeds) with such vain talks”? They said, “O Master! are these also recorded”? Imam Ali (a.s.) replied, “Yes, and even the peath that you exhale.

The reward of removing a thorn or a stone or a skin from the path of other people are also recorded. These small deeds too do not go wasted”. (Ma'ad) “Come and read my Scrolls”. “Then as for him who is given his book in his right hand, he will say: Lo! read my book, Surely I knew that I shall meet my account. So he shall be in a life of pleasure, in a lofty position”. (Surah-al-Haqqah : 19-22).

A child who secures first rank in his school is so excited and happy, that he calls out to his friends “Come and see my result, that I have passed in the first rank”. In the same manner, on the day of Qayamat, a believer (mo'min) will be given his scrolls in his right hand, and he will call out in excitement: “Lo! come and read my book. My Prayers (Namaz), Fasts (Siyam), and other deeds are accepted by Allah. Come and have a look at them. Surely I knew that I shall meet my account.

In the world I was always worried about what would be the outcome of my deeds on the day of Qayamat. Today my accounting is over”. So he shall be in a life of pleasure. Verily the person will be fortunate, and will remain in eternal bliss in Paradise. While the unfortunate child who has failed in his exams, passes through the narrow lanes hiding from people's sight with his had bowed down in shame. Sometimes he wishes that he had died, and sometimes pacifies himself.

This will be the state of the evil-doers on that day. “And as for him who is given his book in his left hand he shall say: O would that my book had never been given to me, And I had not known what my account was, O would that it had made an end (of me), My wealth has awailed me nothing”. (Surah-al-Haqqah: 25-28) “And as for him who is given his book behind his back, he shall call for perdition, and enter into burning fire”.

(Surah-al-Inshiqaq : 10-12) The (sinner) person will be given his scrolls from behind, in a manner that his right hand will be tied with his neck, and his left hand will be stretched behind. The scrolls will then be given in his left hand and it will be said unto him “Read your scrols”.
