Surah 6. Al-An'am, Ayah 160
| مَنْ جَاءَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ فَلَهُ عَشْرُ أَمْثَالِهَا ۖ وَمَنْ جَاءَ بِالسَّيِّئَةِ فَلَا يُجْزَىٰ إِلَّا مِثْلَهَا وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ |
| Transliteration | : | man jaa'a bi- al- h.asanah fa- la- -hu cashr amthaal -haa wa- man jaa'a bi- as- sayyi'ah fa- laa yujzaa 'illaa mithl -haa wa- hum laa yuz.lamon |
| Pickthall | : | Whoso bringeth a good deed will receive tenfold the like thereof, while whoso bringeth an ill deed will be awarded but the like thereof; and they will not be wronged. |
| Asad | : | Whoever shall come [before God] with a good deed will gain ten times the like thereof; but whoever shall come with an evil deed will be requited with no more than the like thereof; and none shall be wronged.162 |
| Malik | : | Whoever does one good deed, he will be given credit for ten similar good deeds, and whoever does one bad deed will be punished for only one, and no one will be treated unjustly. |
| Yusuf Ali | : | He that doeth good shall have ten times as much to his credit: he that doeth evil shall only be recompensed according to his evil. No wrong shall be done unto (any of) them. 986 |
Note - 162Lit., "and they shall not be wronged". See in this
connection the statement that God "has willed upon
Himself the law of grace and mercy", occurring in verse
{12} of this surah, and the corresponding note [10].

Note - 986God is just as well as generous. To the good the reward
is multiplied ten times (i.e., far above the merits) on
account of His generosity. To the evil, the punishment is
no more than commensurate with their sin, and even so the
door of mercy is always open to those who sincerely
repent and show it by their conduct.
