Their Hands And Their Feet Shall bear Witness Against Them.

    

            يَوْمَ تَشْهَدُ عَلَيْهِمْ أَلْسِنَتُهُمْ وَأَيْدِيهِمْ وَأَرْجُلُهُم بِمَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ

(٢٤:٢٤)

On the Day when their tongues, their hands, and their legs or feet will bear witness against them as to what they used to do.(Quran 24:24)

Explantion of the Ayah  (ibn kathir) 

(On the Day when their tongues, their hands, and their legs will bear witness against them as to what they used to do.) 

 Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that Ibn `Abbas said, "This refers to the idolators when they realize that no one will enter Paradise except the people who used to perform Salah. They will say, `Come, let us deny (everything).' So they will deny (everything), then their mouths will be sealed and their hands and feet will

testify against them, and they will not be able to hide anything from Allah.'' Ibn Abi Hatim also recorded that Anas bin Malik said, "We were with the Prophet and he smiled so broadly that his back teeth could be seen, then he said:

(Do you know why I am smiling) We said, `Allah and His Messenger know best.' He said,

(Because of the way a person will dispute with his Lord. He will say, "O Lord, did you not protect me from doing wrong'' Allah will say, "Of course,'' The person will say, "I will not accept for anyone to give testimony concerning me except myself.'' Allahwill say, "You are sufficient as a witness against yourself.'' Then a seal will be put upon his mouth and it will be said to his faculties, "Speak.'' So they will speak about his deeds. Then he will be permitted to speak, and he will say, "Away with you! I was only speaking in your defence!'') This was recorded by Muslim and An-Nasa'i.

(On that Day Allah will pay Dinahum,) Ibn `Abbas said,

(Dinahum) "Meaning `their account.' Every time Dinahum appears in the Qur'an it means `their account.''' This was also the view of other scholars.

(and they will know that Allah, He is the Manifest Truth.) means, His promise, His threat and His reckoning are all just and there is no unfairness in them.

May Allah Make the reckonig easy for us. Ameen
