the Messenger of Allah (saas) said: "Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, said: 'Whoever does one good deed will have (the reward of) ten like it and more, and whoever does a bad deed will have one like it, or I will forgive him. Whoever draws near to Me a hand span, I draw near to him an arm's length; whoever comes to Me a forearm's length, I draw near him an arm's length; whoever comes to Me walking, I come to him in a hurry. Whoever meets Me with an earthful of sins, but does not associate anything in worship with Me, I will meet it (i.e., his sins) with forgiveness equal to that.'"

If he leaves it" - and perhaps he said: "if he does not act upon it, then write a good reward for him.'" Then he recited: Whoever comes with a good, then he shall have ten the like thereof (6:160).

And each bad deed will be recorded as it is, unless Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, forgives it.'"
