111. 2 That is, the reward for good deeds will not be reduced, nor will the punishment for evil deeds be increased. This will not happen; not even the slightest injustice will be done to anyone. The punishment for evil will be exactly as much as the evil committed.

[115]
On the Day of Judgment, Everyone Will Care Only for Themselves:
The slips of these Muhajirin and Mujahidin will be forgiven on that day when every person will be concerned only about themselves. Mother, father, brother, sister, wife, children—no one will be of any help to anyone, to the extent that one will not even like to speak to them, rather, will avoid them. Everyone will be worried about how to attain salvation from the punishment of Allah; for this purpose, they will even invent some true or false excuses and, through questioning and answering, will wish to succeed in their objective.
