Transliteration:( Wa maa tujzawna illaa maa kuntum ta'maloon )
"And you shall only be awarded according to your own doings [40]."
This means that Paradise will be granted through the grace of Allah Almighty, while Hell will be the result of His justice.
For example, minor children of the believers will be granted Paradise, even without deeds, because of divine mercy.
On the other hand, minor children of the infidels will not be cast into Hell, because they have committed no sins.
This highlights that no one will be wronged—every soul will receive only what it has earned, or what Allah bestows by His mercy.
