English

[336] 205 – (129) Abü Hurairah narrated that Muhammad the Messenger of Allah said: "Allah, the Most High, said: 'If it occurs to My slave to do a good deed, I will write down one good deed for him if he does not do it. If he does it, I will write it down tenfold. If it occurs to him to do a bad deed, I will forgive him for that if he does not do it and if he does it, I will write it down as one bad deed." The Messenger of Allah said: "The angels said: '0 Lord, there is Your slave who wants to do a bad deed,' although He had more knowledge about him. He said: 'Watch him; if he does it then write it down as one bad deed, and if he does not do it, then write down one good deed for him, for he gave it up for My sake." The Messenger of Allah A said: "When the Islam of one of you is good, every good deed that he does is recorded for him between tenfold and seven-hundred fold, and every bad deed that he does is recorded as one bad deed, until he meets Allah."
