It is reported that 'Abd Al-Rahman ibn Mahdi (rahimahullaah) said,
quote:
"If it were not for the fact I hate that Allaah is disobeyed, I would have wished that no one remain in this city except that he had spoken ill of me and backbitten me; for what is nicer than a good deed a man finds in his records on the Day of Resurrection without having done a thing or even having known?"


Abu Nu'aym, Hilyatu Al-Awliyaa` 4:45.

Note: This is a reference to a person who has been backbitten receiving good deeds on the Day of Judgment from the person who backbit him and didn't repent and make amends, as mentioned in some narrations from the Prophet (salallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam).


Subhanak Allaahuma wa bihamdika ash-hadu anlaa illaaha illa anta astaghfiruka wa atubu ilayk  

If I said anything correct, then it is from Allaah (subhanahu wa taa'ala), and if I erred, then that is from me and shaytan.
