لِلّٰهِ مَا فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِى الۡاَرۡضِؕ وَاِنۡ تُبۡدُوۡا مَا فِىۡۤ اَنۡفُسِكُمۡ اَوۡ تُخۡفُوۡهُ يُحَاسِبۡكُمۡ بِهِ اللّٰهُؕ فَيَـغۡفِرُ لِمَنۡ يَّشَآءُ وَيُعَذِّبُ مَنۡ يَّشَآءُ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَىۡءٍ قَدِيۡرٌ۔
"And to Allah belongs what is in the heavens and what is in the earth. And if you disclose what is in your hearts or conceal it Allah shall make you account for it, then He shall forgive whom He wills and punish whom He wills. And Allah is powerful over everything."
This verse means that on the Day of Judgment Allah Ta'alah will make all His creations account for all of their deeds, the ones they carried out, as well as the ones they had firmly decided to carry out and kept it hidden from others, but never got the chance to carry it out. In has been narrated in a Hadith appearing in Sahih al-Bukhari and Muslim that that it was reported by Sayyidna Ibn Umar RAA that: "I have heard from the Holy Prophet ﷺ that the believer (Momin) will be drawn near his most exalted Lord when Allah Almighty will make him recall his sins one by one and will ask him if he knew that he had committed those sins. The believer will confess. Allah Almighty will say, 'I concealed your sins in the life of the world and never allowed this to be known to others. Today, I forgive that.' He will be given the book of Good Deeds, while the sins committed by disbelievers and hypocrites will be announced before everybody."
