Verse 111

Table of Contents

    111. “And certainly, to all will your Lord recompense them their deeds in full; verily He is aware of what they do.”

    In stressing the matter further, the Qur’an adds in this verse that Allah will remunerate both groups, the faithful as well as the idol worshippers, without any failing or shortcoming, in lieu of the kind of conduct they had been engaged in.

    The verse says:

    “And certainly, to all will your Lord recompense them their deeds in full;...”

    This does not create any difficulties for Allah, for He is well aware of everything and of what they do.

    It continues saying:

    “…verily He is aware of what they do.”

    It is interesting to note that the Qur’an says that Allah will return to them (the recompense of) their deeds. This is another allusion to the subject of the embodiment of deeds and that the reward and retribution of man, indeed, are his own deeds which will change in form and reach him.

    Anyway, in the Divine system of belief, no deed will be left unanswered and uncompensated for; if it is good, it will be rewarded with good and if it is evil it will be compensated for with the same.
