That is because of what your hands have sent ahead, and because Allah is not tyrannical to His servants.’

Surah 'Ali-Imran, Verse 182
182. "This is for what your hands have sent on ahead and, of course, Allah is not in the least unjust to the servants."
In this verse, it says that the painful torment you are tasting its bitterness now, is the fruit of your own deeds. It was you yourselves who did wrong to your own souls, for never is Allah unjust to anyone. It says:
In principle, if criminals, such as you, do not receive the punishment of their evil deeds, and be counted in the row of good doers, it will be the utmost injustice; and if Allah did not do like that, He would be the most unjust.
