According to Wabisa b. Maʿbad al-Asadi (ra), the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, “...good is what brings tranquility to the heart and pervades it; evil, even if people gave you a fatwa to do it, is what unsettles the heart and leaves it in doubt.” (al-Darimi, al-Buyuʿ, 2)

According to what was transmitted from ʿAbd Allah b. Masʿud (ra), a man asked the Messenger of Allah (saw), “How can I know if what I have done is good or evil?” The Prophet (saw) answered, “If you hear your neighbors saying that you have done well, then you have done well, and if you hear them saying that you have done something evil, then you have done something evil.” (Ibn Maja, al-Zuhd, 25; HM3808, Ibn Hanbal, I, 402)

Abu Saʿid (al-Khudri) (ra) said, “I heard the Messenger of Allah (saw) say, ‘If one of you sees something evil, he should try to change it by hand, if not by words; and if he cannot do that either, (he should detest it) by the heart. This is the minimum required by the faith.’” (Muslim, al-Iman, 78)

According to Abu Hurayra (ra), the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, “If any one of you lives by adhering closely to Islam, then he will be rewarded from ten times to seven hundred times for each good deed that he does and each bad deed will be recorded as it is.” (al-Bukhari, al-Iman, 31)

According to ʿAʾisha (ra), the Prophet (saw) used to say, “O, Allah! Make me one of those who, if they do good deeds, they rejoice, and if they do bad deeds, they seek forgiveness.” (Ibn Maja, al-Adab, 57; Ibn Hanbal, VI, 188)
