Although the Mu'tazila cease to exist today, but, unfortunately, there have appeared within the Muslims, [some] people, who reject the fact of ‘Isali al-Thawaab’ (the conveying of reward). To declare faith in the Blessed Qur'an and the Noble Hadith, whilst at the same time to reject the reality of the Isali al-Thawaab, are beliefs of a contradictory nature. These people believe in the teachings of the Glorious Qur'an and the Blessed Hadith, and it is astonishing that whilst declaring faith and actions in these two, however, have they managed to reject the reality of Isali al-Thawaab, and with it they have rejected the benefits thereof.
Such people should analyze the following pieces of evidence (with respect to the truth of Isali al-Thawaab) in accordance with the teachings of the Majestic Qur’Án and the Honourable Hadith), and reconsider their position.
