It is presented to me my Ummah’s deeds, the good and the bad, so I found that among the good deeds: removing the filth from the road.

Behold, thy Lord said to the angels: “I will create a vicegerent on earth.” [Quran, Chapter 2: 30]We did indeed offer the Trust to the Heavens and the Earth and the Mountains; but they refused to undertake it, being afraid thereof: but man undertook it; – he was indeed unjust and foolish; [Quran, Chapter 33: 72]
