And the Sheikh the Imam interpreter said: The faith of a person is not weighed because it has no opposite to be placed in another scale because its opposite is disbelief and one person cannot have faith and disbelief within it, similarly in the sea of speech of the Sword of Truth Abu Al-Mu'in Al-Nasafi, and in the interpretation of the Mufti Abu Sa'ud Effendi that the works of the disbelievers are not weighed and they are not placed a balance definitely.

Thus, whoever’s scales are heavy will proceed to Paradise, and whoever was among the people of misery will fall into the fire, as it was reported from the Messenger of Allah that he said: Some of my nation will fall into the fire like rain. Similarly, it is narrated from Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: The balance will be set up on the Day of Judgment between two columns, the length of each column being what is between the east and the west, and the side of the balance is like the plates of this world in its length and width; one of the sides is on the right of the Throne and it is the scale of the good deeds, and the other is on the left of the Throne, the scale of the bad deeds. And between the scales are like the heads of mountains from the works of the two worlds, filled with good deeds and bad deeds on a Day that is measured as 84.
