Allah the Exalted said,
[كُلُّ امْرِىءٍ
بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهَينٌ]
(Every person is a pledge for that which he has earned.) After Allah
mentioned His favor of elevating the offspring to the ranks of their parents,
even though the deeds of the former did not qualify them, He affirmed His
fairness in that, He does not punish anyone for the mistakes of others,
[كُلُّ امْرِىءٍ
بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهَينٌ]
(Every person is a pledge for that which he has earned.) Therefore, every
person will be responsible for his actions. No sin committed by others shall
ever be added to one's load, even if committed by his or her parents or
offspring. Allah the Exalted said,
[كُلُّ نَفْسٍ بِمَا
كَسَبَتْ رَهِينَةٌ - إِلاَّ أَصْحَـبَ الْيَمِينِ - فِى جَنَّـتٍ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ -
عَنِ الْمُجْرِمِينَ ]
(Every person is a pledge for what he has earned, except those on the Right.
In Gardens, they will ask one another about the criminals.)(74:38-41)
