    do good have good It is a law of nature that whatever action we take in this world‚ there is always a reaction. If we do well‚ we stand to gain a good reward. If we do badly‚ we should expect a bad outcome ultimately. "As you sow‚ so shall you reap" is a popular saying.

(17:7) One of the companions of the Prophet Muhammad was very fond of
