The Presentation and Accounting

 After the slaves have received their records, at that point, the deeds and their account will be presented followed by subsequent events of the weighing of the deeds, passing over the Bridge, Paradise or Hell.

What is the Presentation?

What will be presented?

What is the situation of the slave in the course of presentation?

Introduction

The presentation has two meanings:

The Presentation of The Entire Creation to Their Lord

This particular presentation does not involve accounting or disputation over the deeds. Rather, it is merely a standing in the presence of the King, Exalted and Mighty be He. Everyone will be presented to Him - man, jinn and animals. All of them will be presented to Him just as He created them the first time; not one of them will be able to hide from him. This is as Allah said,

That Day shall you be brought to Judgment, not a secret of you will be hidden. (Surah Al-Haaqah: 18)

Allah also says,

And they will be set before your Lord in (lines as) rows, (and Allah will say): Now indeed, you have come to Us as We Created you the first time. Nay, But you thought that We had appointed no meeting for you (With Us). (Surah Al-Kahf: 48)

Presentation and accounting

In this presentation, the deeds will be scrutinized, the slave will be questioned, How did you respond to the Messengers? What did you use to do? The situation will be precarious for them, feet will sway, children will grow gray hairs and tongues will be tide as Allah says,

Verily, to Us will be their return; then verily, for Us will be their reckoning. (Surah Al-Ghaashiyah: 25-26)

The Meaning of Accounting

Al-Hisaab means counting and computation. From Alla´s justive is that He will call the slave to account on the Day of resurrection. The one who worked and sought nearness to Allah is not the same as the one who disobeyed and turned away from allah. The count of everyone´s deeds is kept and under watch.

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.
