Reward

There will be a reward for every act performed (though the view of the detached is that the act is its own reward)

"For every act performed there shall be a recompense according to the estimate of God, and unto this the very ordinances and prohibitions prescribed by the Almighty amply bear witness. For surely if deeds were not rewarded and yielded no fruit, then the Cause of God --exalted is He--would prove futile. Immeasurably high is He exalted above such blasphemies! However, unto them that are rid of all attachments a deed is, verily, its own reward."

(Bahá'u'lláh, Tablets of Bahá'u'lláh, p. 189)
