Those with faith and righteous deeds will be guided by an inner and right-hand light, allowing them to cross safely into Paradise.

This inner light, emanating from faith and righteous actions, illuminates the path for the believers, while the unrighteous will face a treacherous journey and ultimate damnation. The Sirat is a test of one's spiritual state and a decisive factor in their eternal destiny.
