The Law of Reward and Punishment:
Allah Almighty has clarified His law of reward and punishment at many places in the Quran. Its summary is that every person will receive only what he himself has earned; the righteousness or servitude of forefathers or ancestors will be of no benefit to anyone. Furthermore, one will receive only as much as he has done—neither less nor more; there will be no reduction in any case, and if Allah wills, He can give a greater reward for the deed. Also, the principle of someone else bearing the consequences of another's actions cannot apply before Allah; no person will be willing to bear the burden of another's sins, no matter how close a relative he may be. However, if a person initiates a good deed that continues after his death, its reward will continue to reach him as a continuing share even after his death. Similarly, if someone initiates an evil deed, its sin will also continue to accumulate in his account as a continuing share.
