Nesae 40

40- ALLAH IS NOT UNJUST BY AS MUCH AS AN ATOM, AND WHEN A GOOD DEED IS DONE, IT WILL BE MULTIPLIED, AND WILL GIVE FROM HIS BOUNTY A GREAT REWARD.

Allah the Highest takes account of every thing we do, and nothing as much as an atom goes unaccounted for.  The understanding of what an atom is has changed over the years.  It used to mean the smallest particle of matter, and now it is a much smaller thing, seen with the electron microscope only.

Allah the Highest stresses on His justice and that every little thing or deed is taken into account in other Ayahs saying: “HE WHO DOES AS MUCH AS THE WEIGHT OF ATOM OF GOOD, HE WILL SEE IT * AND HE WHO DOES AS MUCH AS THE WEIGHT OF AN ATOM OF EVIL, HE WILL SEE IT”.  (S: 99 A: 7, 8)

Allah the Highest is not unjust to a believer or disbeliever.  The believer has his reward mostly in the Hereafter, while the disbeliever has his reward in this life.  Allah’s messenger prayer and peace upon him said: “Allah is never unjust to a believer concerning his good deeds.  He is given in this life because of it, and is also rewarded in the Hereafter.  As for the disbeliever, he is rewarded for it in this life, while in the Hereafter will not find a good deed to be rewarded for”.  (M: Munafqeen; 56 & T: Eman; 17 & A: 3; 123,125)

In reality, Allah the Highest rewards us for our intention, even if we intend to do something and do not do it for any reasons, Allah the Highest rewards us for it still.  Allah’s messenger prayer and peace upon him said: “He who intends to do a good deed, and does not do it, Allah writes it down as a good deed.  If he intends to do a good deed and he does it, Allah writes it down as ten good deeds, to seven hundred and many more.  If he intends to do any evil deed and does not, Allah writes it down as a complete good deed, if he intends to do it and does it, Allah writes it down a one evil deed”.  (M;Eman;207 & D:Taharah;32 & T:Taharah;44,45 & A:2;262 4;29)

Then, Allah the Highest takes the believers out of the Hell-Fire, any one who has as much as an atom of belief in their hearts.  (M: Eman; 302 & B: Eman; 33 & T: Jahanam; 9 & Ma: Zohd; 37)

This is a great Mercy from Allah the Highest.  To admit to take out of the Hell-Fire and admit to Paradise people who believe in him, but did nothing good.
