It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever intends to do a good deed but is unable to act upon it, still one good deed is written for him. And if he carries out that good deed, then ten good deeds are written for him. And if a person intends to commit a sin but does not act upon it, that sin is not recorded in his book of deeds. And if he commits it, then only one sin is written. If he did not act upon it, then that sin is not written.
