أَخْبَرَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْمُعَلَّی بْنِ يَزِيدَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا صَفْوَانُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِکٌ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ عَنْ عَطَائِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أَسْلَمَ الْعَبْدُ فَحَسُنَ إِسْلَامُهُ کَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ کُلَّ حَسَنَةٍ کَانَ أَزْلَفَهَا وَمُحِيَتْ عَنْهُ کُلُّ سَيِّئَةٍ کَانَ أَزْلَفَهَا ثُمَّ کَانَ بَعْدَ ذَلِکَ الْقِصَاصُ الْحَسَنَةُ بِعَشْرَةِ أَمْثَالِهَا إِلَی سَبْعِ مِائَةِ ضِعْفٍ وَالسَّيِّئَةُ بِمِثْلِهَا إِلَّا أَنْ يَتَجَاوَزَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَنْهَا
سنن نسائی · Hadith 5013
It was narrated that Abu Saeed Al-Khudri said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: ‘If a person accepts Islam, such that his Islam is good, Allah will decree reward for every good deed that he did before, and every bad deed that he did before will be erased. Then after that will come the reckoning; each good deed will be rewarded ten times up to seven hundred times. And each bad deed will be recorded as it is, unless Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, forgives it.” (Sahih)
