بَابٌ فِيمَنْ هَمَّ بِحَسَنَةٍ أَوْ عَمِلَهَا ، وَمُضَاعَفَةِ الْحَسَنَاتِ .
One who intends a good deed or does it, and the multiplying of good deeds
Majma al-Zawaid 17186 — One who intends a good deed
عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَنْ هَمَّ بِحَسَنَةٍ فَلَمْ يَعْمَلْهَا كُتِبَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَةً ، فَإِنْ عَمِلَهَا كُتِبَتْ لَهُ عَشْرَ أَمْثَالِهَا إِلَى سَبْعِمِائَةٍ وَسَبْعِ أَمْثَالِهَا ، وَمَنْ هَمَّ بِسَيِّئَةٍ فَلَمْ يَعْمَلْهَا لَمْ تُكْتَبْ عَلَيْهِ ، فَإِنْ عَمِلَهَا كُتِبَتْ عَلَيْهِ سَيِّئَةً ، أَوْ يَمْحُهَا اللَّهُ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - " . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الصَّغِيرِ ، وَرِجَالُهُ ثِقَاتٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever intends a good deed and does not act on it, one good deed is recorded for him; and if he acts on it (i.e. on his intention), from ten times its like up to seven hundred and seven times are recorded for him. And whoever intends an evil deed and does not act on it, it is not recorded against him; and if he acts on it, one evil deed is recorded against him, and (sometimes) Allah Almighty wipes even that out."
Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Saghir, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
