بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

35.18

وَ لَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِّزْرَ اُخْرٰىؕ-وَ اِنْ تَدْعُ مُثْقَلَةٌ اِلٰى حِمْلِهَا لَا یُحْمَلْ مِنْهُ شَیْءٌ وَّ لَوْ كَانَ ذَا قُرْبٰىؕ-اِنَّمَا تُنْذِرُ الَّذِیْنَ یَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُمْ بِالْغَیْبِ وَ اَقَامُوا الصَّلٰوةَؕ-وَ مَنْ تَزَكّٰى فَاِنَّمَا یَتَزَكّٰى لِنَفْسِهٖؕ-وَ اِلَى اللّٰهِ الْمَصِیْرُ(18)

Kanz-ul-Irfan

And no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another; [1] and if any burdened soul calls another to carry its burden, no part of it will be carried even if it is a close relative. [2] ˹Dear Beloved Prophet,˺ you only warn those who fear their Lord without seeing and establish the prayer. Whosoever adopts purity, he has adopted it only for himself—and to Allah alone is the return.

Commentary

[1]

On the Day of Judgement, each person will only bear the burden of his own sins—no one will be accounted for the misdeeds of another. However, the misguided groups who misled others will carry the burden of their own misguidance and that of the people who they misguided.

[2]

On the Day of Judgement, if a sinful person calls upon another to carry a part of his sins, the latter will certainly not do this even if he is a close relative—such as a father or son—of the one who called him.
