The Holy Quran 21:47 — Surah Al-Anbya

Arabic text

وَنَضَعُ ٱلْمَوَٰزِينَ ٱلْقِسْطَ لِيَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ فَلَا تُظْلَمُ نَفْسٌ شَيْـًٔا ۖ وَإِن كَانَ مِثْقَالَ حَبَّةٍ مِّنْ خَرْدَلٍ أَتَيْنَا بِهَا ۗ وَكَفَىٰ بِنَا حَـٰسِبِينَ

Translation

On the Day of Qiyaamah, We will erect the scales of justice (to weigh the good and bad actions of people) and no soul will be oppressed (wronged) in the least. Even if a deed (good or bad) is equal to the weight of a mustard seed, We shall bring it (to be weighed on the scales). We suffice as Reckoners (and need no one else for the task).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The scales of justice and the weighing of deeds: that is, even a deed the weight of a mustard seed will be weighed on the scales; it will not be lost here or there, nor will anyone be wronged or treated unfairly. The account will be settled down to the smallest grain. (Note.) “Mawazin” is the plural of “mizan” (scales).
