Quran 7:8 — Al-A'raaf, verse 8
M. A. S. Abdel Haleem · selected translation
On that Day the weighing of deeds will be true and just: those whose good deeds are heavy on the scales will be the ones to prosper,
وَالْوَزْنُ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْحَقُّ ۚ فَمَنْ ثَقُلَتْ مَوَازِينُهُ فَأُولَـٰئِكَ هُمُ الْمُفْلِحُونَ
wal-waznu yawma-idhin l-ḥaqu faman thaqulat mawāzīnuhu fa-ulāika humu l-muf'liḥūna
