Making an intention to do a good deed

· 7 Shaʻban 1436 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If we have a niyyah to do certain good deeds but because of some genuine reasons we are unable to do that action, then will we get the reward of that action without doing it? Because of having a true intention.

Answer

Insha Allah you will be rewarded.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
