How will disobedient monotheists receive their books on the Day of Resurrection, and will their sins and transgressions be proclaimed publicly before all creation, or will Allah conceal them?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no explicit text detailing how disobedient Muslims (al-ʿuṣāh) will receive their books (of deeds). However, religious texts confirm that the believer will receive his book in his right hand, and the disbeliever in his left. Some scholars have opined that all believers, including the disobedient, will receive their books in their right hands, citing that the contrast is between the believer and the disbeliever. As for disobedient Muslims, they are under the Will of Allah; He may punish them and then admit them into Paradise, or He may forgive them, and they will not abide eternally in the Fire.
