51 Preface لِيَجزِيَ اللَّهُ كُلَّ نَفسٍ ما كَسَبَت ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَريعُ الحِسابِAli Quli Qaraiso that Allah may reward every soul for what it has earned.1 Indeed Allah is swift at reckoning. Or, perhaps preferably, ‘so that Allah may requite every soul with what it has earned,’ which implies that deeds are identical with their recompense, or that deeds are their own recompense.
