Transliteration:( Fasawfa yuhaasab hisaabany yaseeraa )
On the Day of Judgment, people will be divided into different categories based on their deeds:
✅ Those who receive their Book of Deeds in their right hand will have an easy reckoning—only a presentation of their deeds, followed by salvation.
🏆 Some special servants of Allah will enter Jannah 🌳 without any accountability.
🌸 Minor children, mentally challenged individuals, and some deeply devoted worshippers will not have their deeds recorded.
⚖️ The weight of deeds will follow a divine order, showing Allah’s ultimate justice.
✋ The right hand is superior to the left hand, as seen in the giving of the Book of Deeds.
✨ Lesson:
This verse emphasizes the mercy of Allah in making accountability easy for the righteous and reminds us to strive for good deeds to receive our Book in the right hand.
The tafsir of Surah Inshiqaq verse 8 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Inshiqaq ayat 1 which provides the complete commentary from verse 1 through 15.
(84:8) shall be called to an easy accounting,[6]
6. That is, his reckoning will be less severe. He will not be asked why he had done such and such a thing and what excuses he had to offer for it. Though his evil deeds will also be there along with his good deeds in his records, his errors will be overlooked and pardoned in view of his outweighing good deeds. In the Quran, for the severe reckoning of the wicked people the words su-al-hisab (heavy reckoning) have been used (Surah Ar-Raad, Ayat 181), and concerning the righteous it has been said: From such people, We accept the best of their deeds and overlook their evils. (Surah Al-Ahqaf, Ayat 16). The explanation of it given by the Prophet (peace be upon him) has been related in different words by lmam Ahmad Bukhari, Muslim, Tirmidhi, Nasai, Abu Daud, Hakim, Ibn Jarir, Abd bin Humaid, and Ibn Marduyah on the authority of Aishah. According to one of these traditions the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Doomed will be he who is called to account for his deeds. Aishah said: O Messenger of Allah, has not Allah said: He whose record is given in his right hand shall have an easy reckoning? The Prophet (peace be upon him) replied: That is only about the presentation of the deeds, but the one who is questioned would be doomed. In another tradition Aishah has related: I once heard the Prophet (peace be upon him) supplicate during the prayer, thus: O God, call me to a light reckoning. When he brought his Prayer to conclusion, I asked what he meant by that supplication. He replied: Light reckoning means that one’s conduct book will be seen and one’s errors will be overlooked. O Aishah, the one who is called to account for his deeds on that Day, would be doomed.
