So, whosoever does an atom’s weight of good will see it. And whosoever does an atom’s weight of evil will see it.^[1]

No wrongdoing can be hidden

Sayyidunā Luqmān al-Ḥakīm رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه was a righteous servant of Allah Almighty who was granted wisdom by Him. He advised his son, and this has been mentioned in the noble Quran. He said:

یٰبُنَیَّ  اِنَّہَاۤ  اِنۡ تَکُ مِثۡقَالَ حَبَّۃٍ  مِّنۡ خَرۡدَلٍ فَتَکُنۡ فِیۡ صَخۡرَۃٍ  اَوۡ فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ اَوۡ فِی الۡاَرۡضِ یَاۡتِ بِہَا اللّٰہُ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰہَ  لَطِیۡفٌ خَبِیۡرٌ (۱۶)

“O my son! If evil is the equivalent of a mustard seed in a rock, or in the heavens, or in the earth, Allah will bring it forth; He knows of every detail, ˹He is˺ Most-Aware.^[2]

We come to know that no matter how small a wrong deed is and how much it is hidden, Allah Almighty will bring it forward on the Day of Judgement, for He knows of the smallest of things; He is aware.

O devotees of the Prophet! This is the Day of Gathering, and the noble Quran was revealed to increase fear of this day within the hearts. This is the fear which is required by every member of society today. If only we were granted true concern for this Day.

Virtues of fearing the Day of Judgement

1.   The beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, “Every eye will be shedding tears on the Day of Judgement, except three.” He mentioned one from among them is the eye which shed tears out of fear of Allah Almighty.^[3]
