Thawāb al-Aʿmāl wa ʿiqāb al-Aʿmāl

Thawab al-A'mal is also known as Sawab ul Amal. Thawāb al-Aʿmāl wa ʿIqāb al-Aʿmāl is a remarkable collection of Ḥadīths collected by al-Shaykh al-Ṣadūq, a preeminent Shīʿa scholar of the 4th/10th century. Thawāb al-Aʿmāl wa ʿIqāb al-Aʿmāl delineates virtuous and sinful deeds, elucidating their spiritual consequences which lead to either reward or punishment. It has long served as an invaluable resource for both Shīʿa scholars and the general Shīʿa population and is celebrated as one of the most notable Shīʿa Ḥadīth collections. The author's motivation for writing this book was rooted in the prophetic hadith: "The one who leads people to good deeds is as their doer." Shaykh al-Ṣadūq emphasised that his primary goal in authoring the book was to seek the reward and satisfaction of God. The book is structured into two primary parts. The first part, "Thawāb al-Aʿmāl," encompasses 788 Ḥadīths arranged under 389 titles, detailing the spiritual rewards for performing righteous actions. The second part, "ʿIqāb al-Aʿmāl," includes 331 Ḥadīths distributed under 131 titles, focusing on the punitive consequences of committing sinful actions.
