وَعَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " يَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى: مَنْ جَاءَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ فَلَهُ عَشْرُ أَمْثَالِهَا وأزيد وَمن جَاءَ بِالسَّيِّئَةِ فجزاء سَيِّئَة مِثْلُهَا أَوْ أَغْفِرُ وَمَنْ تَقَرَّبَ مِنِّي شِبْرًا تَقَرَّبْتُ مِنْهُ ذِرَاعًا وَمِنْ تَقَرَّبَ مِنِّي ذِرَاعًا تَقَرَّبْتُ مِنْهُ بَاعًا وَمَنْ أَتَانِي يَمْشِي أَتَيْتُهُ هَرْوَلَةً وَمَنْ لَقِيَنِي بِقُرَابِ الْأَرْضِ خَطِيئَةً لَا يُشْرِكُ بِي شَيْئًا لَقِيتُهُ بِمِثْلِهَا مَغْفِرَةً ". رَوَاهُ مُسلم

Abu Dharr (may God be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of God (peace be upon him) said: God Most High says: ‘Whoever comes with a good deed will have ten times its like, and I will add more. Whoever comes with an evil deed will have only an equal recompense, or I will forgive. Whoever draws near to Me by a handspan, I draw near to him by a cubit; whoever draws near to Me by a cubit, I draw near to him by a fathom; whoever comes to Me walking, I come to him at a run. Whoever meets Me with sins as vast as the earth, without associating anything with Me, I will meet him with forgiveness just as vast.’ Muslim transmitted it. The Arabic source grades it sahih (al-Albani).
