لَا يَزَالُ الْعَبْدُ الْمُؤْمِنُ يُكْتَبُ مُحْسِناً مَا دَامَ سَاكِتاً فَإِذَا تَكَلَّمَ كُتِبَ مُحْسِناً أَوْ مُسِيئاً .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Ali Bin Al Hassan Bin Ribat, from one of his men, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘The believing servant does not cease to be written as the good-doer for as long as he is silent. So when he speaks, he is Written either as a good-doer or an evil doer’.
