Rewards of Good Deeds

SUMMARY: The hadith explains that a Muslim's good deeds are stored up for them in the Hereafter, and they will be rewarded for it. An infidel is given the reward of their good deeds in this world, but not in the Hereafter.

Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah said, "When an infidel accomplishes any good deed, he is rewarded for it in this world; and in the case of a Muslim, Allah stores up his good acts for him in the Hereafter and provides him with subsistence in this life due to his obedience". Another narration is: Messenger of Allah said, "Allah does not wrong a believer a good deed because he is given blessings for it in this world and will be rewarded for it in the Hereafter. But the infidel is given in the world the reward for good deeds, he has performed for the sake of Allah and when he comes to the Hereafter, there is no good deed for which he can be rewarded". Muslim.
وعن أنس، رضي الله عنه ،عن رسول الله، ، قال‏:‏ ‏"‏إن الكافر إذا عمل حسنة، أطعم بها طعمة من الدنيا، أما المؤمن، فإن الله تعالى يدخر له حسناته في الآخرة، ويعقبه رزقاً في الدنيا على طاعته‏"‏‏.‏ وفي رواية‏:‏ ‏"‏إن الله لا يظلم مؤمنا حسنة يعطى بها في الدنيا، ويجزى بها في الآخرة، وأما الكافر، فيطعم بحسنات ما عمل لله تعالى، في الدنيا حتى إذا أفضى إلى الآخرة، لم يكن له حسنة يجزى بها‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains that when a person does something good, they will be rewarded for it either in this life or the next. For Muslims, Allah stores up their good deeds and rewards them with blessings and sustenance in this life due to their obedience. On the other hand, an infidel is only given rewards for their good deeds in this world; there is no reward waiting for them after death. This teaches us to strive to do as many good deeds as possible so we can reap its benefits both now and later on.
