and in the ḥadīth, there is evidence that the scale of deeds has two observable pans and that deeds, even though they are intangible, are weighed. And Allāh is capable of all things. This is among the beliefs of Ahl al-Sunnah, and the ḥadīths on this are numerous, if not mutawātir. See "Sharḥ al-ʿAqīdah al-Ṭaḥāwiyyah" (351-352, Islamic Office edition).
