* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn

{ وَٱلْوَزْنُ يَوْمَئِذٍ ٱلْحَقُّ فَمَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَازِينُهُ فَأُوْلَـٰئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْمُفْلِحُونَ }

The weighing of deeds or of the scrolls of these deeds shall be — in a balance that has a tongue and two palms as scales as reported in a hadīth — on that day that is on the day of the questioning mentioned namely the Day of Resurrection the true weighing the fair weighing al-haqq ‘the true’ is an adjectival qualification of al-wazn ‘the weighing’. As for those whose scales are heavy with good deeds they are the successful the triumphant.
