Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The angels say: O my Lord! Your such-and-such servant intends to commit an evil deed, while He (Allah) knows best. So He says: Wait, if he commits that evil deed, then write one evil for him, and if he refrains from it, then write one good deed for him because he refrained from it only for My sake.
