In Section 26 of Haft Awrang, Jami expounds upon the Islamic eschatological concept of Mizan (the Scale or Balance) as the ultimate instrument of divine justice.

Key Themes:

• Objective Accountability: Jami portrays the weighing of obedience (ta'at) and disobedience (isyan) as an absolute, objective process that determines a soul's destiny.
• Dichotomy of Salvation and Loss: The weighing yields a strict binary outcome:
  • Salvation (Najat): Achieved by those whose scale of good deeds (hasanat) is heavier, resulting in eternal joy.
  • Ruin (Khusran): Suffered by those whose scale of sins (isyan) is heavier, leading to absolute despair and spiritual weeping.
• Theological Context: This concept reinforces the traditional Islamic doctrine of moral responsibility (taklif), reminding the reader that every action carries eternal weight, a common theme in didactic Persian Sufi poetry.
