لله ما في السماوات وما في الأرض ۗ وإن تبدوا ما في أنفسكم أو تخفوه يحاسبكم به الله ۖ فيغفر لمن يشاء ويعذب من يشاء ۗ والله على كل شيء قدير

Al Baqarah

لِلّٰهِ مَا فِی السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ مَا فِی الْاَرْضِؕ-وَ اِنْ تُبْدُوْا مَا فِیْۤ اَنْفُسِكُمْ اَوْ تُخْفُوْهُ یُحَاسِبْكُمْ بِهِ اللّٰهُؕ-فَیَغْفِرُ لِمَنْ یَّشَآءُ وَ یُعَذِّبُ مَنْ یَّشَآءُؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدِیْرٌ(284)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth belongs to Allah. If you reveal whatever is in your hearts or conceal it, Allah will call you to account for it.[1] So He will forgive whomsoever He wills and punish whomsoever He wills. And Allah has power over everything.

Commentary

[1]

Humans are affected by different types of thoughts including doubts (waswasah), resolutions (ʿazm), and intentions (irādah). To be free of doubts is beyond the power of an individual, so there is no accountability for it. Thoughts which are accepted by one’s heart and for which there is an intention to implement shall make one accountable; the verse refers to such thoughts whether one reveals what is in his heart or conceals it, Allah Almighty will call one to account due to this.
