Types of Accounting in the Hereafter

 People will differ in the manner the accounting of their deeds will be taken, Some of them will enter Paradise without any reckoning, some will have an easy accounting while some will have a stringent one. Among them are, 

Those who will enter Paradise without accounting and they are seventy thousand. They are the creme of the ummah in Faith, piety, patience and Jihad. The Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam has said about them.

Some nation were displayed before me and I saw my ummah and I marveled at the great multitude and appearance filling the plain and mountain. (Allah) will say, O Muhammad are you pleased? I will say, Yes, o Lord. He said, Along with these are 70.000 (your followers) who will enter Paradise without reckoning of their accounts. These are the people who do not treat themselves with Ruqya and do not get treated by branding themselves.

Ukasha )Ibn Muhsin) got up and said, Supplicate to allah to make me one of them. The Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam said,

O Allah make him one of them.Then another man got up and said,

Supplicate to Allah make me one of them.

The Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam said, Ukasha has preceded you.

These seventy thousand will not undergo any reckoning on the account of their deeds. They will not be scrutinized like others. We ask Allah to make us one of them.

Among them are aslo those whom Allah will take the reckoning of their deeds but in an easy manner with neither interrogation nor scrutiny. Their deeds will just be presented to them and Allah will overlook their shortcomings.

The Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said,

The believe will draw near (his Lord) till his Lord covers him with His screen and makes him confess his sins. (Allah will ask him), Do you know (that you committed) such-and-such sin? He will say, Yes, O Lord. Till he acknowledges his sins and he will suppose in his mind that he is destroyed, and then allah will say, I concealed them in the world and I forgive them for you today. Then the record of his good deeds will be given to him.

It is also permissible for the servant to supplicate the his accounting be eased for him. It is recommended that he should say, Allahumma hassIbni Hisaaban yaseera. (O Allah, take the account of my deeds in an easy reckoning.

The is as our mother, Aisha, said, I heard the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam say in one of his Salaah, O Allah grant me an easy reckoning. When he completed the Salaah, I asked him, O Prophet of allah salla alayhi wa sallam, What is an easu reckoning? he said, It is such that Allah looks at his records and overlooks for him.

We ask Allah to make the reckoning of our deeds easy and to encompass us in His mercy and clemency, Aleem.

Among them are those on whom Allah will be severe with and whom He will upbraid due to their sins. He will interogate and scrutinize, Why were you negligent in your Salaah? How did you pay your Zakat? Why were you disobedient to your parents? Why did you ill-treat my slave? In this kind of reckoning, the servant will be tormented and he will tremble and be terrified.

The Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said,

No one will be called to account (about his deeds on the Day of Resurrevtion) except that he will be ruined. Aisha said, Didn´t Allah says,

Then, as for him who will he given his Record in his right hand He surely will receive an easy reckoning. (surah Al-Inshiqaaq: 7-8).

The Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam replied,

That is just the presentation of the accounts but on one is interogated about his account on the Day of Resurrection except that he will be punished.

The punishment that is indicated here is not that of the Fire, it is the torment that comes with the horror and fear in from of the terror and fright of beholding his bad deeds and the humilation of recounting his evil deeds. Among them are those who will have a long and diffcult reckoning due to the numerousness and enormity of their sins, or due to their presistence in and publicity of then, or corruption of their intentions and their dissimulation in their actions.

The Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said,

The first of the people whose care will be decided on the Day of Judgment will be a man who died as a martyr. He will be brought and Allah will make him recount His blessings (i.e. the blessings which He had bestowed upon him) and he will recount (Acknowledge) the. (Then) Allah will say, What did you do (to repay these blessings)? He will say, I frought for Your sake until I was martyred. Allah will say, You have told a lie. You fought that you might be called a brace and you were called so. (Then) orders will be passed against him and he will be dragged on his face and cast into Hell.

Then a man who acquired knowledge, imparted it (to others) and recited the Quran will be brought forward and Allah will make him recount His blessings and he will acknowledge them. Then allah will Ask, What did you do (to repay the blessings)? he will say, I Acquired knowledge and disseminated it and recited the Quran seeking Your pleasure. Allah will say, You have told a lie. You acquired knowledge so that you might be called a scholar, and you recited the Quran so that is might he said, He is a Qari (good reciter) and such has been said. Then orders will be passed against him and he will be dragged on his face cast into the Fire.

Allah will exempt a group of the believers who will not undergo any accounting as the Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said,

Seventy thousand of my followers will enter Paradise without accounts, and they are those who do not practive Ar-Ruqyah and do not see an evil omen (in things), but they put their trust in their Lord.

In another narration, The Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam added,

With every one thousand, there will be (another) seventy thousand.
