The Recompense for Deeds is True ( Surah Al-Inshiqaq 84: 6)

The Recompense for Deeds is True

Allah says,

O man! Verily, you are returning towards your Lord with your deeds and actions, a sure returning,  meaning, `verily you are hastening to your Lord and working deeds.'

and you will meet `Then you will meet that which you did of good or evil.' A proof for this is what Abu Dawud At-Tayalisi recorded from Jabir, that the Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu Alayhi wa Sallam) said,

Jibril said, "O Muhammad! Live how you wish, for verily you will die; love what you wish, for verily you will part with it; and do what you wish, for verily you will meet it (your deed).  There are some people who refer the pronoun back to the statement "your Lord.'' Thus, they hold the Ayah to mean, "and you will meet your Lord.'' This means that He will reward you for your work, and pay you for your efforts. Therefore, both of these two views are connected. Al-`Awfi recorded from Ibn `Abbas that he said explaining,

O man! Verily, you are returning towards your Lord with your deeds and actions, a sure returning,  "Whatever deed you do, you will meet Allah with it, whether it is good or bad.''
