On some of the da'wah pamphlets, there is a drawing of the scale by which deeds are weighed on the Day of Resurrection. What is the ruling on this act?

Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Is it permissible to draw the scale by which deeds are weighed on the Day of Resurrection, as I have seen that in some books and pamphlets?

Answer:
No, this is not permissible. Matters of the Hereafter are not measured by the standards of this world. The scale in the Hereafter is not measured by the scale of this world, the one at the grocery store or the supermarket. This is nonsense. This is a matter that is not permissible. Rather, they draw Paradise and Hell in pamphlets, with a picture of Paradise and a picture of Hell. Surat al-Mizan and Surat al-Hasab. This is nonsense. They call this one of the means of da'wah. It is not one of the means of da'wah; it is one of the means of nonsense and judging the unseen. So this act is not permissible. Yes.
