Translation<br />
<strong>Hadith</strong> 37<br />
From Ibn ‘Abbas relating from <strong>the</strong> Apostle <strong>of</strong> God among <strong>the</strong> things he<br />
related from his Lord. He said: “verily God has written down <strong>the</strong> good<br />
deeds and <strong>the</strong> evil deeds.” Then he clarified that, “whosoever proposes<br />
to do a good deed but does not perform it, God writes it down with him<br />
as a perfect good deed, but if he proposes it and performs it God writes<br />
it down with him as ten good deeds, up to seven-hundred fold, or more<br />
than that manifold. But if he proposes an evil deed and does not perform<br />
it, God writes it down with him as a perfect good deed, and if he<br />
proposes it and does it, God writes it down as an evil deed.” Bukhari and<br />
Muslim, each in his Sahih, had thus related it.<br />
Commentary<br />
This tradition points out how much God loves those who do good.<br />
He has promised to give tremendous rewards to good doers.<br />
Allah has rewards for a good intention and more rewards if it is<br />
transformed into action. There is also reward for an evil thought not<br />
acted. However, Allah will not condone any evil intention translated into<br />
action.<br />
This hadith is a perfect indication that we should not be planning evil to<br />
<strong>the</strong> extent <strong>of</strong> carrying it out against our human counterparts. We are<br />
expected to do good always.<br />
