15. 2 That is, they will have no value or worth with Us, or it means that We will not even arrange a scale for them in which their deeds may be weighed, because deeds will be weighed for those who believe in the Oneness of God, whose record of deeds will contain both good and bad deeds, whereas their record of deeds will be completely devoid of good deeds. As it is mentioned in the hadith: "On the Day of Resurrection, a fat, healthy man will come, but with Allah he will not have the weight of a mosquito's wing." Then the Prophet ﷺ recited this very verse. (Sahih Bukhari, Surah Al-Kahf)

Why Will the Scale Not Be Set for the Good Deeds of Disbelievers?
That is, they remained so engrossed in worldly pursuits that they never remembered Allah, not even by mistake, nor did they do any good deeds for the Hereafter. Such people who do not believe in the Hereafter, even if they performed some good deeds in the world, they will not receive any reward for them, because they did not do these good deeds for the Hereafter, but for the world. So, they received their reward in the world. For example, if someone established an educational institution or a hospital, then their motive was either national interest or their own fame, etc. So, they received these benefits in the world itself. Their name was engraved on such buildings, and even after death, their name remained alive. Their reputation for good deeds became well-known among people; therefore, they will not receive any reward in the Hereafter. As for their disbelief and their evil deeds, there is no benefit in just weighing them; benefit could only occur if there was some weight in the other pan as well. If one pan is completely empty, what is the point of weighing? Then, due to their disbelief and evil deeds, they will be cast into Hell, and they will be the greatest losers in this respect: that in the world, they kept doing good deeds and kept thinking that they were doing very good works, but due to not believing in the Hereafter, they will be included among those people who spent their entire lives in wickedness and did not do any good deeds at all.
