Allah does not let the reward of those who do good deeds be lost. What happened may be a trial to raise your ranks and expiate sins, for trials are a part of life. And whoever endures them patiently will attain mercy and high ranks, as Almighty Allah says: (And We test you with evil and with good as a trial). And the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The greatness of the reward is with the greatness of the affliction. And when Allah loves a people, He afflicts them. So whoever is content, for him is contentment, and whoever is displeased, for him is displeasure." And whatever harm befalls a Muslim, Allah expiates his sins with it.
