سورة الأعراف، الآية ٩
وَمَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ خَسِرُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُم بِمَا كَانُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا يَظْلِمُونَ ٩
waman khaffat mawāzīnuhu fa-ulāika alladhīna khasirū anfusahum bimā kānū biāyātinā yaẓlimūna
And those whose scales are light - they are the ones who will lose themselves for what injustice they were doing toward Our verses.
Verse 9 of Surah Al-A’raf (7:9), a Meccan surah, is in juz 8, on page 151 of the mushaf. Read it in Arabic with its transliteration, translations and tafsir, and listen to it recited by 72 reciters.
78 recitations by 72 reciters: pick one and it plays in the player.
Those whose bad actions weigh more than their good actions are the people who have lost themselves, gaining their destruction on the Day of Judgement and being excluded from eternal bliss because of their rejection of Allah’s signs and verses.
But those whose scales are light, it is they who have lost their own souls, because they wrongfully rejected Our verses.
And as for those whose scale will be light, they are those who will lose their ownselves (by entering Hell) because they denied and rejected Our Ayât (proofs, evidence, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.).
And as for those whose scale is light: those are they who lose their souls because they used to wrong Our revelations.
Those whose scale will be light, will be their souls in perdition, for that they wrongfully treated Our signs.
And as for him whose measure (of good deeds) is light those are they who have made their souls suffer loss because they disbelieved in Our communications.
And he whose scales weigh light, then those are the ones who have lost their (own) selves for that they used to do injustice regarding Our signs.
They share a sequence of words with this verse: useful for telling them apart when memorising.
وَمَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ خَسِرُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ فِى جَهَنَّمَ خَٰلِدُونَ
But those whose scales are light - those are the ones who have lost their souls, [being] in Hell, abiding eternally.
