English Translation
Bilal ibn al-Harith said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) say: "A man may speak a word of goodness without knowing its reach, and Allah records for him His pleasure until the day he meets Him. And a man may speak a word of evil without knowing its reach, and Allah records against him His displeasure until the day he meets Him."
