Allah says in surah Yasin [36 : 12]:

[وَنَكْتُبُ مَا قَدَّمُوا وَآثَارَهُمْ]

We record what they put forward and their traces.

Commenting on this, al-Sa'di wrote:

[{ وَآثَارَهُمْ } وهي آثار الخير وآثار الشر، التي كانوا هم السبب في إيجادها في حال حياتهم وبعد وفاتهم، وتلك الأعمال التي نشأت من أقوالهم وأفعالهم وأحوالهم، فكل خير عمل به أحد من الناس، بسبب علم العبد وتعليمه ونصحه، أو أمره بالمعروف، أو نهيه عن المنكر، أو علم أودعه عند المتعلمين، أو في كتب ينتفع بها في حياته وبعد موته، أو عمل خيرا، من صلاة أو زكاة أو صدقة أو إحسان، فاقتدى به غيره، أو عمل مسجدا، أو محلا من المحال التي يرتفق بها الناس، وما أشبه ذلك، فإنها من آثاره التي تكتب له، وكذلك عمل الشر.]

"And their traces" - i.e. the traces of good and the traces of evil. That is, the things which were done either during their lives or after their deaths whose doing can be traced back to them. These were the deeds that grew from their words, actions and general ways of being.

Every deed that someone did because of that person's knowledge, teaching, advice, enjoining good or forbidding evil, or knowledge that he poured into his students on into his books which people benefited from either during his life or after his death, or any good - such as prayer, zakah, charity, or good behavior - that he did and then others followed his example, or if he built a masjid or a place that people enjoy both during his life and after his death, or something else - all of these things are his traces which are recorded for him.

And likewise for any evil deeds.
