3093. It was narrated that 'Aishah said: "I said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, I know the severest Verse in the Book of Allāh, the Mighty and Subime.' He said: 'Which Verse is that, O 'Aishah?'" She said: The Verse in which He says: Whosoever does evil deeds, he will have the recompense thereof.[1] He said: 'Do you not know, O 'Aishah, that if a Muslim is afflicted with a calamity or a thorn, that will expiate the worst of his deeds, for the one who is called to account will be punished?' She said: 'Does not Allāh say: He surely, will receive an easy reckoning?[2] He said: 'That is the presentation (of his deeds), O 'Aishah; if a person's deeds are put to account, he will be punished."(Hasan)

Commentary
Besides this, other Aḥādīth also confirm the fact that not only the pains, trials and sicknesses suffered in this world, but also the agony of death, the punishment of the grave and the trying conditions on the Day of Judgment shall, for some believers, be the cause of the atonement of their sins, while for others they shall become the source of the raising of their ranks in the Hereafter. As a result, a party of the believers shall emerge absolutely cleansed of all their sins and enter Paradise.
