Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: (And the sky, He raised it and placed the balance)]

Allah the Exalted said:

And the sky, He raised it

وَالسَّمَاءَ رَفَعَهَا

[Ar-Rahman: 7] Meaning: And He raised the sky. The Noble Qur'an did not specify the extent of this raising, but the Sunnah did so; it is high and immense,A great, towering height:

And He placed the balance

وَوَضَعَ الْمِيزَانَ

[Ar-Rahman: 7] That is: He established justice. The evidence that the balance here means justice is the saying of Allah, Blessed and Exalted:

We have already sent Our messengers with clear evidences and sent down with them the Scripture and the balance

لَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلَنَا بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ وَأَنْزَلْنَا مَعَهُمُ الْكِتَابَ وَالْمِيزَانَ

[Al-Hadid: 25] Meaning: Justice. The balance here does not refer to the known two-pan scale. No,The intended meaning of the balance: Justice. The meaning of (He placed the balance) is: He established it for people so that they would act with equity,Meaning: with justice.
