Commentary
And whoever's scales are light, this is due to his turning away from those deeds that are based on faith. So those are the ones who have certainly lost themselves, by destroying them through following their desires in the abode of deeds and preoccupying themselves with their whims, away from the ranks of perfection. Then he explained this by saying: "In Hell, they will abide forever," which is a place where its captive does not cease, nor does its fire extinguish.
