The Details of the Question
Can thawabs (rewards) be eliminated like sins?
The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
There are some cases in which rewards are eliminated. For instance,
"Backbiting and being jealous of others eliminate good deeds. Beware being jealous of others. Know it very well that jealousy eliminates good deeds just as fire eliminates wood." (Hadith, Mishkat)
“Belief and jealousy do not exist together in the heart of a person.”(Nasai, Jihad, 8)
“Jealousy eliminates good deeds just as fire eliminates wood.” (Abu Dawud, Adab, 44; Ibn Majah, Zuhd, 22)
