Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner asks: Is a sin in the Haram multiplied? And is merely the intention to commit a sin in the Haram recorded as a sin?
Answer:
Good deeds are multiplied, as in the hadith: As for bad deeds, Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says: Ahm. And [Ghafir 40:40]. Bad deeds are not multiplied, but they are intensified. A bad deed in the Haram is intensified. It is not intensified in quality, nor multiplied in quantity. As He the Exalted said: [Al-Hajj 22:25] meaning the Haram [Al-Hajj 22:25]. A bad deed is intensified. It is not multiplied, yes.
May Allah reward you. The questioner asks: Is a sin in the Haram multiplied? And is merely the intention to commit a sin in the Haram recorded as a sin?
Answer:
Good deeds are multiplied, as in the hadith:
a hundred thousand prayers,
مائة ألف صلاة،Whoever does an evil deed will not be recompensed except by the like thereof
مَنْ عَمِلَ سَيِّئَةً فَلَا يُجْزَىٰ إِلَّا مِثْلَهَاand [also] whoever intends [a deed] therein of deviation [in religion] or wrongdoing
وَمَن يُرِدْ فِيهِ بِإِلْحَادٍ بِظُلْمٍWe will make him taste of a painful punishment.
نُّذِقْهُ مِنْ عَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ
