“A man from my nation will be called before all of creation
on the Day
of Resurrection, and ninety-nine scrolls will be spread
out for him,
each one extending as far as the eye can see. Then Allah
will say: “Do
you deny anything of this?” He will say: “No, O
Lord.” He will say:
“Have My recording scribes been unfair to
you?” Then He will say:
“Apart from that, do you have any good
deeds?” The man will be
terrified and will say: “No.” (Allah)
will say: “Indeed, you have good
deeds with Us, and you will not be
treated unjustly this Day.” Then a
card will be brought out on
which is written Ash-hadu an la ilaha
illallah wa anna Muhammadan
‘abduhu wa rasuluhu (I bear witness that
none has the right to be
worshipped but Allah, and that Muhammad is
His slave and Messenger).
He will say: “O Lord, what is this card
compared with these
scrolls?” He will say: “You will not be treated
unjustly.” Then
the scrolls will be placed in one side of the Balance
and the card in
the other. The scrolls will go up (i.e., be light) and
the card will
go down (i.e., will weigh heavily).”
There will be a flag for every perfidious person on the Day of Judgment, and it would be said: Here is the perfidy of so and so.
