The Hereafter is a dwelling of recompense, not a dwelling of action

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. He also asks: Do the Muslim’s prayers, fasting, and all types of worship that he performs in this worldly life, does he perform them in the Hereafter as well? Do the types of worship that the Muslim performs in this worldly life, does he perform them in the Hereafter as well? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
No, that is not the case. Action is only in this world, whereas the Hereafter is a dwelling of recompense. It is not a dwelling of action. Fasting, prayer, jihad in the cause of Allah, and all other righteous deeds are only in this world. As for the Hereafter, it is a dwelling of recompense, not a dwelling of action.
