The Book of Characteristics · Hadith 54 (#Ḥadīth #1)

1-53 حدثنا أبي رضي الله عنه قال: حدثنا أحمد بن إدريس، عن محمد بن أحمد، عن موسى بن عمر، عن علي بن الحسين بن رباط، عن بعض رجاله، عن أبي عبدالله عليه السلام قال: لا يزال العبد المؤمن يكتب محسنا مادام ساكتا، فإذا تكلم كتب محسنا أو مسيئا

1-53 My father narrated to me, he said: Ahmad ibn Idris narrated on the authority of Muhammad ibn Ahmad, on the authority of Musa ibn Umar, on the authority of Ali ibn al-Hussein ibn Ribat, on the authority of some of his men, that Abi 'Abdullah said, “Good deeds are recorded for a Muslim man as long as he remains quiet. However, once he starts to talk, good or bad deeds are recorded for him.”
