Are the deeds of disbelievers weighed like those of the believers?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Are the deeds of disbelievers on the Day of Resurrection weighed as the deeds of believers are weighed, or is the scale exclusively for the believers?

Answer:
The scale is for those who have good deeds and bad deeds, and they are the believers. The believers who have good deeds and bad deeds are the ones whose deeds are weighed. As for the disbeliever, he has no good deeds; he has no good deeds. That is why it says: Say,
Shall We inform you of the greatest losers in deeds? They are those whose efforts were lost in this worldly life, while they used to thinkهل ننبئكم بالأخسرين أعمالا الذين ضل سعيهم في الحياة الدنيا وهم يحسبون
Al-Mustadrak lil-Hakim 25:527
They think they do well
Those are the ones who disbelieved in the signs of their Lord and in meeting Him, so their deeds were rendered void. So We will not assign for them on the Day of Resurrection any weight.أولئك الذين كفروا بآيات ربهم ولقائه فحبطت أعمالهم فلا نقيم لهم يوم القيامة وزنا
Al-Mustadrak lil-Hakim 25:528
. They have nothing to be weighed. All their deeds, may Allah protect us from it, are disbelief, and they are all bad deeds.
