Surah Ta Ha quotes Allah telling Moses that the Hour will definitely be established to recompense every Nafs:
|
14 إِنَّنِي أَنَا اللَّهُ لَا إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا أَنَا فَاعْبُدْنِي وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ لِذِكْرِي |
|
15 إِنَّ السَّاعَةَ آتِيَةٌ أَكَادُ أُخْفِيهَا لِتُجْزَىٰ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ بِمَا تَسْعَىٰ |
|
16 فَلَا يَصُدَّنَّكَ عَنْهَا مَن لَّا يُؤْمِنُ بِهَا وَاتَّبَعَ هَوَاهُ فَتَرْدَى |
|
14. Indeed, I am Allah. There is no deity except Me, so worship Me and establish prayer for My remembrance. |
|
15. Indeed, the Hour is coming - I almost conceal it - so that every soul may be recompensed according to that for which it strives. |
|
16. So do not let one avert you from it who does not believe in it and follows his desire, for you [then] would perish |
Surah az-Zumar states that the greatest loss in the Hereafter is the loss of the Nafs, and the family:
|
10 قُلْ يَا عِبَادِ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا رَبَّكُمْ ۚ لِلَّذِينَ أَحْسَنُوا فِي هَـٰذِهِ الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةٌ ۗ وَأَرْضُ اللَّهِ وَاسِعَةٌ ۗ إِنَّمَا يُوَفَّى الصَّابِرُونَ أَجْرَهُم بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ |
|
11 قُلْ إِنِّي أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَعْبُدَ اللَّهَ مُخْلِصًا لَّهُ الدِّينَ |
|
12 وَأُمِرْتُ لِأَنْ أَكُونَ أَوَّلَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ |
|
13 قُلْ إِنِّي أَخَافُ إِنْ عَصَيْتُ رَبِّي عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ |
|
14 قُلِ اللَّهَ أَعْبُدُ مُخْلِصًا لَّهُ دِينِي |
|
15 فَاعْبُدُوا مَا شِئْتُم مِّن دُونِهِ ۗ قُلْ إِنَّ الْخَاسِرِينَ الَّذِينَ خَسِرُوا أَنفُسَهُمْ وَأَهْلِيهِمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ۗ أَلَا ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ الْخُسْرَانُ الْمُبِينُ |
|
16 لَهُم مِّن فَوْقِهِمْ ظُلَلٌ مِّنَ النَّارِ وَمِن تَحْتِهِمْ ظُلَلٌ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ يُخَوِّفُ اللَّهُ بِهِ عِبَادَهُ ۚ يَا عِبَادِ فَاتَّقُون |
|
10. Say, "O My servants who have believed, fear your Lord. For those who do good in this world is good, and the earth of Allah is spacious. Indeed, the patient will be given their reward without account." |
|
11. Say, [O Muhammad], "Indeed, I have been commanded to worship Allah, [being] sincere to Him in religion. |
|
12. And I have been commanded to be the first [among you] of the Muslims." |
|
13. Say, "Indeed I fear, if I should disobey my Lord, the punishment of a tremendous Day." |
|
14. Say, "Allah [alone] do I worship, sincere to Him in my religion, |
|
15. So worship what you will besides Him." Say, "Indeed, the losers are the ones who will lose themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection. Unquestionably, that is the manifest loss." |
|
16. They will have canopies of fire above them and below them, canopies. By that Allah threatens His servants. O My servants, then fear Me. |
Surah Qaf informs us that whatever diminishes of us is being preserved, in a record, and the Earth will give up all of it when it’s time for us to be raised up. It also states that every word that the Nafs whispers is recorded. It then informs a scene from the resurrection day:
|
16 وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ وَنَعْلَمُ مَا تُوَسْوِسُ بِهِ نَفْسُهُ ۖ وَنَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ حَبْلِ الْوَرِيدِ |
|
17 إِذْ يَتَلَقَّى الْمُتَلَقِّيَانِ عَنِ الْيَمِينِ وَعَنِ الشِّمَالِ قَعِيدٌ |
|
18 مَّا يَلْفِظُ مِن قَوْلٍ إِلَّا لَدَيْهِ رَقِيبٌ عَتِيدٌ |
|
19 وَجَاءَتْ سَكْرَةُ الْمَوْتِ بِالْحَقِّ ۖ ذَٰلِكَ مَا كُنتَ مِنْهُ تَحِيدُ |
|
20 وَنُفِخَ فِي الصُّورِ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ يَوْمُ الْوَعِيدِ |
|
21 وَجَاءَتْ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ مَّعَهَا سَائِقٌ وَشَهِيدٌ |
|
22 لَّقَدْ كُنتَ فِي غَفْلَةٍ مِّنْ هَـٰذَا فَكَشَفْنَا عَنكَ غِطَاءَكَ فَبَصَرُكَ الْيَوْمَ حَدِيدٌ |
|
23 وَقَالَ قَرِينُهُ هَـٰذَا مَا لَدَيَّ عَتِيدٌ |
|
24 أَلْقِيَا فِي جَهَنَّمَ كُلَّ كَفَّارٍ عَنِيدٍ |
|
25 مَّنَّاعٍ لِّلْخَيْرِ مُعْتَدٍ مُّرِيبٍ |
|
26 الَّذِي جَعَلَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَـٰهًا آخَرَ فَأَلْقِيَاهُ فِي الْعَذَابِ الشَّدِيدِ |
|
27 ۞ قَالَ قَرِينُهُ رَبَّنَا مَا أَطْغَيْتُهُ وَلَـٰكِن كَانَ فِي ضَلَالٍ بَعِيدٍ |
|
28 قَالَ لَا تَخْتَصِمُوا لَدَيَّ وَقَدْ قَدَّمْتُ إِلَيْكُم بِالْوَعِيدِ |
|
29 مَا يُبَدَّلُ الْقَوْلُ لَدَيَّ وَمَا أَنَا بِظَلَّامٍ لِّلْعَبِيد |
|
16. And We have already created man and know what his soul whispers to him, and We are closer to him than [his] jugular vein |
|
17. When the two receivers receive, seated on the right and on the left. |
|
18. Man does not utter any word except that with him is an observer prepared [to record]. |
|
19. And the intoxication of death will bring the truth; that is what you were trying to avoid. |
|
20. And the Horn will be blown. That is the Day of [carrying out] the threat. |
|
21. And every soul will come, with it a driver and a witness. |
|
22. [It will be said], "You were certainly in unmindfulness of this, and We have removed from you your cover, so your sight, this Day, is sharp." |
|
23. And his companion, [the angel], will say, "This [record] is what is with me, prepared." |
|
24. [Allah will say], "Throw into Hell every obstinate disbeliever, |
|
25. Preventer of good, aggressor, and doubter, |
|
26. Who made [as equal] with Allah another deity; then throw him into the severe punishment." |
|
27. His [devil] companion will say, "Our Lord, I did not make him transgress, but he [himself] was in extreme error." |
|
28. [Allah] will say, "Do not dispute before Me, while I had already presented to you the warning. |
|
29. The word will not be changed with Me, and never will I be unjust to the servants." |
Surah at-Tur ayat 21 states that every iMeri (امْرِئٍ) is in pledge, and Surah al-Muddasir ayat 38 states that every Nafs (نَفْسٍ) is in pledge:
|
21 وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَاتَّبَعَتْهُمْ ذُرِّيَّتُهُم بِإِيمَانٍ أَلْحَقْنَا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ وَمَا أَلَتْنَاهُم مِّنْ عَمَلِهِم مِّن شَيْءٍ ۚ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِين |
|
21. And those who believed and whose descendants followed them in faith - We will join with them their descendants, and We will not deprive them of anything of their deeds. Every person, for what he earned, is retained |
|
38 كُلُّ نَفْسٍ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ رَهِينَة |
|
38. Every soul, for what it has earned, will be retained |
Surah at-Tariq informs us that each Nafs has protectors guarding it. It draws attention to what we have been created with, and then draws attention to the returning sky and the cracking Earth, stating that surely we will be raised up for reckoning. The Quran is the decisive Word …
|
4 إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ |
|
5 فَلْيَنظُرِ الْإِنسَانُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ |
|
6 خُلِقَ مِن مَّاءٍ دَافِقٍ |
|
7 يَخْرُجُ مِن بَيْنِ الصُّلْبِ وَالتَّرَائِبِ |
|
8 إِنَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِ لَقَادِرٌ |
|
9 يَوْمَ تُبْلَى السَّرَائِرُ |
|
10 فَمَا لَهُ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ |
|
11 وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الرَّجْعِ |
|
12 وَالْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ الصَّدْعِ |
|
13 إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ |
|
14 وَمَا هُوَ بِالْهَزْل |
|
4. There is no soul but that it has over it a protector. |
|
5. So let man observe from what he was created. |
|
6. He was created from a fluid, ejected, |
|
7. Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs. |
|
8. Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able. |
|
9. The Day when secrets will be put on trial, |
|
10. Then man will have no power or any helper. |
|
11. By the sky which returns [rain] |
|
12. And [by] the earth which cracks open, |
|
13. Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement, |
|
14. And it is not amusement |
Surah al-Fajr states that the Nafs-e-Muttmainah will be allowed to enter Allah’s worshippers, and they will enter Allah’s Gardens in the Hereafter:
|
27 يَا أَيَّتُهَا النَّفْسُ الْمُطْمَئِنَّةُ |
|
28 ارْجِعِي إِلَىٰ رَبِّكِ رَاضِيَةً مَّرْضِيَّةً |
|
29 فَادْخُلِي فِي عِبَادِي |
|
30 وَادْخُلِي جَنَّتِي |
|
27. [To the righteous it will be said], "O reassured soul, |
|
28. Return to your Lord, well-pleased and pleasing [to Him], |
|
29. And enter among My [righteous] servants |
|
30. And enter My Paradise. |
Surah ash-Shams informs us that each Nafs has been given understanding of its good and its evil:
|
7 وَنَفْسٍ وَمَا سَوَّاهَا |
|
8 فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَاهَا |
|
9 قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّاهَا |
|
10 وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّاهَ |
|
7. And [by] the soul and He who proportioned it |
|
8. And inspired it [with discernment of] its wickedness and its righteousness, |
|
9. He has succeeded who purifies it, |
|
10. And he has failed who instills it [with corruption] |
