The Allegoric Projection Of Some Deeds Into The Other World As Explained By The Great Mystic Poet,Maulana Rumi,In His Classic,The Mathnavi

When a man has performed a Sajdah(Prostration) or Ruku’(Bowing in prayers),in this world,his Sajdah in the Hereafter will become a means to enter Paradise,
When Praise of Allah comes forth from your lips,the Lord of day-break moulds it into a bird of Paradise,
Your praise and glorification (of Allah)does not resemble the bird,because the bird itself
Is nothing but wind and air(so it was made from the breath of your praise)
When sacrifice and Zakaat(Alms-giving)come from your hands will plant date-palms and fresh herbage in the Hereafter,
The water of your patience will become a stream of water in Paradise;your love and affection(for Allah)will become a river of milk in Paradise
Your present delight in devotion will become a stream of honey;while your spiritual rapture and longing will become a brook of delicious wine
(Apparently)these causes(actions in this world)do not resemble those effects(Rewards in the Hereafter).None knows how He(Allah)produced the effects in place of those(the causes)
Since these causes(deeds)were obedient to your commands,the four streams(of Paradise) likewise will show obedience to you
You would be able to make them flow in whatever direction you please;even as that quality you had(in this world)to do good deeds
As for example,if your own semen be at your command,the progeny thereof would also be at your commands
Your younger son would then run obediently at your command,saying”I am from the part of you that was obedient to you”
As that quality was obedient to your command in this world,likewise those streams would flow at your command in the Next World
The trees of Paradise would be obedient to you because those tree were made fruitful by your own good qualities
Since those qualities are kept within your command here,so their recompense in the Next world will be at your wish
When your hands strikes injust blow against the victims,that the injustice will become the infernal tree in the Hell
If your anger kindled fire burning people’s hearts,you yourself would become the fuel of Hell-Fire
Since in this world,the fire of your passions was burning mankind,that which grows out it would be burning you in Hell
As the fire of your anger attacks the people in this world,so that which springs from it will like-wise blaze the people in the Next World
Your stinging words resembling snakes and scorpions would become snakes and scorpions(of Hell)they will seize(assail and bite)your hands
