Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ آدَمَ، عَنْ عَبْدَةَ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ فَاطِمَةَ، عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ لَهَا ‏ "‏ لاَ تُحْصِي فَيُحْصِيَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَلَيْكِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Muhammad ibn Adam reported from Abdah, from Hisham ibn Urwah, from Fatimah, from Asma bint Abi Bakr, that the Prophet ﷺ said to her: Do not keep count, lest Allah, Mighty and Majestic, keep count against you.
