This week, let's review the 37th hadith of the forty hadith of An-nawawih. For the past review, see here

On the authority of Ibn Abbas (RadhiyAllahu ‘anhuma), from the Messenger of Allah (SallaAllahu ‘alayhi wasallam), from what he has related from his Lord is:

“Verily Allah has written down the good deeds and the evil deeds”, and then explained it [by saying]: “Whosoever intended to perform a good deed, but did not do it, then Allah writes it down with Himself as a complete good deed. And if he intended to perform it and did perform it, then Allah writes it down with Himself as from ten good deeds up to seven hundred fold, up to many times multiplied. And if he intended to perform an evil deed, but did not do it, then Allah writes it down with Himself as a complete good deed. And if he intended it [i.e., the evil deed] and then performed it, then Allah writes it down as one evil deed.”

[Reported by Bukhari & Muslim]


Benefits and Action points:
Source: Hadith commentary

- Be observant of Allah’s watching over you
- Train yourself to always think about and intend to do good deeds
- Allah will aid you if we want to do good deeds
- What prevents you from developing further and changing to the better is not having high aspirations and wanting to do good, so change this and have high aspirations
- Try to increase in the reasons for multiplication of deeds so that your deed is multiplied even further e.g. be more sincere, try to benefit others, make sure your hear is present
- Ensure you leave sins for the sake of Allah and not for the sake of the people
- Leaving out an action is an action, so ensure your leaving of actions is solely for Allah so that it is not considered as riyaa’, which is a minor shirk
- Avoid all of the reasons for magnification of sins
- Praise Allah for decreeing the contents of this hadith
