9-11 Al-Hassan ibn Muhammad ibn Sa’id al-Hashimi narrated that Forat ibn Ibrahim ibn Forat al-Kufy quoted Muhammad ibn Zahir, on the authority of Al-Hassan ibn Ali al-Abdi known as Ibn al-Qari, on the authority of Sahl ibn abdul vah’hab, on the authority of Abdul Qod’doos, on the authority of Suleiman ibn Mihran that Ja’far ibn Muhammad as-Sadiq (MGB) said, “
When a person intends to do a good deed, a good deed is recorded for him. Once he engages in doing that good deed, ten good deeds are recorded for him. Once a person intends to do an evil deed, nothing is recorded for him. If he acts upon an evil deed he has nine hours. If he gets sorry, asks for forgiveness and repents within nine hours, nothing will be recorded for him. However, if he doesn’t get sorry and doesn’t repent within nine hours, then one evil deed is recorded for him.”
9-11 حدثنا الحسن بن محمد بن سعيد الهاشمي قال: حدثنا فرات بن إبراهيم ابن فرات الكوفي قال: حدثني محمد بن ظهير قال: حدثنا الحسن بن علي العبدي المعروف بابن القارئ قال: حدثنا سهل بن عبدالوهاب قال: حدثنا عبد القدوس عن سليمان بن مهران، عن جعفر محمد عليهما السلام
أنه قال: إذا هم العبد بحسنة كتبت له حسنة، فاذا عملها كتبت له عشر حسنات، وإذا هم بسيئة لم تكتب عليه فإذا عملها اجل تسع ساعات، فإن ندم عليها واستغفر وتاب لم يكتب عليه، وإن لم يندم ولم يتب منها كتبت عليه سيئة واحدة
