Scale (Mizan)

Ethical teachings within Shia Islam advocate for justice, equality, and integrity. Followers are urged to reflect on how their personal and communal actions resonate within the cosmic scale. This reflection encourages a deeper commitment to social justice and ethical conduct, alongside an enhanced spirituality.

Shia scholars frequently delve into the ramifications of failing to achieve balance on the Mizan.

A deficiency in righteous actions, they argue, could lead to both a spiritual and an existential crisis among individuals.
