English book, p. 168

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

“Whoever does evil will be requited with evil; but whoever does good, whether male or female and is a believer, will enter the Garden; where they will be provided for without measure.” (40:40) “Anyone who performs good deeds, whether it be a man or woman, provided that he is a believer, shall enter Paradise. No one shall suffer the least injustice.” (4:124) “To whoever does good deeds, man or woman, and is a believer, We shall assuredly give a good life; and We will bestow upon them their reward according to the best of their works.” (16:97) “The believers, both men and women, are friends to each other; they enjoin what is good and forbid evil, they attend to their prayers and pay the alms and obey God and His Messenger. On these, God will have mercy, for God is almighty and wise.” (9:71) “‘I will deny no man or woman among you the reward of their labours. You are members of one another. I will certainly forgive the sins of those who emigrated and were expelled from their homes, who suffered persecution in My cause, who fought and were killed. I will certainly admit them to Gardens through which rivers flow, as a reward from God: with God is the best reward.’” (3: 195)
