حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " مَنْ هَمَّ بِحَسَنَةٍ فَلَمْ يَعْمَلْهَا، كُتِبَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَةً، فَإِنْ عَمِلَهَا، كُتِبَتْ لَهُ بِعَشْرِ أَمْثَالِهَا، إِلَى سَبْعِ مِائَةٍ وَسَبْعِ أَمْثَالِهَا، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَعْمَلْهَا، كُتِبَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَةً، وَمَنْ هَمَّ بِسَيِّئَةٍ فَلَمْ يَعْمَلْهَا، لَمْ تُكْتَبْ عَلَيْهِ، فَإِنْ عَمِلَهَا، كُتِبَتْ عَلَيْهِ سَيِّئَةً وَاحِدَةً، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَعْمَلْهَا، لَمْ تُكْتَبْ عَلَيْهِ " (١)، ،

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: Whoever intends to do a good deed but is unable to act upon it, still one good deed is written for him. And if he carries out that good deed, then ten to seven hundred good deeds are written for him. And if he is unable to act, then only one good deed is written. And if a person intends to commit a sin but does not act upon it, that sin is not recorded in his book of deeds. And if he commits it, then only one sin is written. If he did not act upon it, then that sin is not written.
