قَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا مُجَاهِدُ بْنُ مُوسَى، نَبَا مَكِّيٌّ هُوَ ابْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ( ح ). وَحَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ وَأَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ قَالَا: ثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، كِلَاهُمَا، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ أَنَسٍ ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
« مَنْ هَمَّ بِحَسَنَةٍ كَتَبَهَا اللهُ تَعَالَى لَهُ حَسَنَةً، فَإِنْ عَمِلَهَا كُتِبَتْ لَهُ عَشْرَ حَسَنَاتٍ، وَمَنْ هَمَّ بِسَيِّئَةٍ لَمْ تُكْتَبْ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى يَعْمَلَهَا، فَإِنْ عَمِلَهَا كُتِبَتْ لَهُ سَيِّئَةً، وَإِنْ تَرَكَهَا كُتِبَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَةً يَقُولُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: إِنَّمَا تَرَكَهَا مِنْ مَخَافَتِي

✧ "Whoever intends a good deed, Allah the Exalted writes it for him as one good deed. If he performs it, ten good deeds are written for him. And whoever intends an evil deed, it is not written against him until he performs it. If he performs it, it is written as one evil deed. And if he leaves it, a good deed is written for him. Allah, Blessed and Exalted, says: 'He only left it out of fear of Me.'"
