The answer

The "Whoever invokes blessings upon me once, Allah will invoke blessings upon him ten times" was narrated by Muslim. The meaning of Allah's invocation of blessings upon His servant ten times is His mercy upon him, the multiplication of his reward, and His mention of him in the Highest Assembly, as the scholars have stated. Al-Shawkani is of the view that the intention is Allah's mercy upon His servants, a mercy that is multiplied tenfold. As for the additions in some narrations, such as "Allah will write for him ten good deeds," this is in the context of the multiplication of reward, which may reach seven hundred times or more, by Allah's grace.
