The Owner of The Deeds Could Also be Weighed

 This is by placing the servant onto the scale of deeds and the servant will either be heavy or light depending on the rigteousness of His deeds or otherwise. One of the indications of that is what is contined in the story of Abdulah Ibn Masood when he was walking with the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam and they passed by a tree and the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam commanded him to climb the tree and cut a branch which he could use as siwak (toothstick).

When Ibn Masood, who had a slim and slender body, climbed the tree to cut the stick, a wind blew and lifted his garment and it exposed his small and thin shins which drew laughter from the people due to their thinness. The Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam said, ´´What are you laughing at; at the thinness of his shins? By Him in Whose Hans is mu soul, they will be heavier on the scale than Mount Uhud. ´´198

The two shins of Ibn Masood might be light in the world; however they will be heavy in the scale. What will make them heavy in the scale? It is their long standing in prayer and persistent fasting and more so, and his legs never carried him to any haram (places).

as for other than Ibn Masood among those who embelish their exterior and neglect their interior, those who make their garment white while they blacken their hearts. Abdul Qaasim said,

On the Day of Resurrection, a huge fat man will come who will not weigh, the weight of the wing of a masquito in Allah´s Sight.´´ and then the Prophet added, ´We shall not give them any weight on the Day of Resurrection.´´´ Surah Al-Kahf: 105)199

Salvation

 None will be saved on the Day of Resurrection except he who used to worship alah alone with Whom there is no associate. As for the other gods, they will lead their adherents into the Fire.

Voluntary Fasting

 Fasting is one of the major acts of worship with which Allah redeems the fasting person from the Fire. The Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´Fasting is a shield against the Fire (of Hell) just like the shield one of you would use during fighting.´´80 The supererogatory fasting has its virtue. The Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´He who observes fast for a day in the path of Allah, He will remove his face from the Hell due to (the fast of) that day to the extent of seventy years.´ distance.´´81 The phrase ´in the path of Allah´ could either mean fasting a day sincerely, intending the pleasure of Allah; or fasting in the course of a military expedition in the path of Allah.

Backbiter and Tale-Bearer

 A backbiter is the individual who indugles in backiting which involves mentioning about your brother that which he would detest. The tale-bearer is the person who varries bad tale among the people in order to cause disaffection among them. These sins cause pervading tribulations, and enormous corruption also stems from them. Their perpetrators are among the worst of people and due to their capricious tongue, they speak as dictated by their whims and desires.  Their situation at the time of resurrection will be appalling as the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam mentioned, Whoever eats the flesh of his brother in the world (i.e. bacjbites), he will be presented to him on the Day of Resurrection and it will be said to him, Eat his dead as you have eaten him alive. He would eat him and he would scowl and scream.
