ISLAM AND KARMA



                  who come to Him as believers, having done right actions, they will
                  have the highest ranks: Gardens of Eden with rivers flowing under
                  them, remaining in them timelessly, for ever. That is the reward of
                  those who purify themselves. (Surah Ta Ha: 74-76)
                  Those are people of whom the statement about the nations, both of
                  jinn and men, who passed away before them, has also proved true;
                  truly they were the lost. Everyone will be ranked according to what
                  they did. We will pay them in full for their actions and they will not
                  be wronged. On the Day when those who disbelieved are exposed
                  to the Fire: "You dissipated the good things you had in your worldly
                  life and enjoyed yourself in it. So today you are being repaid with
                  the punishment of humiliation for being arrogant in the earth
                  without any right and for being deviators”. (Surat al-Ahqaf: 18-20)
                  Only Allah is capable of giving to everyone the exact reward for
             everything they have done without anyone being wronged even
             slightly.  Allah sees and knows everything; Allah is Forgiving and
             Merciful, forgets nothing, is never mistaken and is Supremely Just.

                  Allah is aware of everything that happens on earth—every single
             falling leaf and every private thought people have. This is what Allah
             says in one of the verses of the Qur’an:
                  The keys of the Unseen are in His possession. No one knows them
                  but Him. He knows everything in the land and sea. No leaf falls
                  without His knowing it. There is no seed in the darkness of the
                  earth, and nothing moist or dry which is not in a Clear Book. (Surat
                  al-An’am: 59)
                  For instance, two people having a secret conversation may think
             that only they themselves know about it; however, Allah is also with
             them while they are talking. Allah hears and is aware of their secret
