Abu Bakr bin Abi Zuhair says that when this verse was revealed «لَّيْسَ بِأَمَانِيِّكُمْ وَلَا أَمَانِيِّ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ مَن يَعْمَلْ سُوءًا يُجْزَ بِهِ» [4-النساء:123] that "Neither your desires nor the desires of the People of the Book are of any account; whoever does evil will be recompensed for it," then our master Abu Bakr Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) submitted: O Messenger of Allah! Will we be punished for every bad deed? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Abu Bakr! May Allah have mercy on you. Do you not fall ill? Do you not face distress? Do you not become sad? Do you not suffer hardship and pain? This is the recompense."
