2319. Muḥammad bin ‘Amr narrated from his father, from his grandfather who said: “I heard Bilāl bin Al-Hārith Al-Muzanī, the Companion of the Messenger of
Allāh ﷻ saying: 'I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ saying: "Indeed one of you says a statement pleasing to Allāh, not realizing that you have achieved what you have achieved. Then for it, Allāh writes for him His pleasure until the Day of Meeting Him. And one of you says a statement angering Allāh, not realizing that you have achieved what you have achieved. Then for it, Allāh writes for him His anger until the Day of Meeting with Him." (Hasan)
[He said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Ṣaḥīḥ. This was reported similarly by more than one narrator from Muḥammad bin 'Amr. They said: "From Muḥammad bin 'Amr, from his father, from his grandfather, from Bilāl bin Al-Ḥārīth." Mālik bin Anas reported this Hadīth from Muḥammad bin 'Amr, from his father, from Bilāl bin Al-Ḥārīth, and he did not mention in it: "From his grandfather."

Commentary
One of us sometimes articulates a statement pleasing to Allāh which, although he does not realize the importance of it, gets a high degree of acceptance with Allāh, and as such becomes a perpetual source of Allāh's pleasure, until the end of the world, so that it spurs him to do more and more virtuous deeds and achieve deliverance in the next world. On the other hand, one of us sometimes articulates a small word which is highly unpleasing to Allāh, and consequently becomes the source of Allāh's displeasure till the end of time.
