حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَجُ
لٌ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ K : أَيُؤَاخَذُ الرَّجُلُ بِمَا عَمِلَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ؟، قَالَ :" مَنْ أَحْسَنَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ لَمْ يُؤَاخَذْ بِمَا كَانَ عَمِلَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، وَمَنْ أَسَاءَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ، أُخِذَ بِالْأَوَّلِ وَالْآخِرِ "
English Translation
It was narrated from Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man said: 'O Messenger of Allah, will a man be held accountable for what he did during the pre-Islamic period of ignorance?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Whoever does good deeds in Islam will not be held accountable for what he did in ignorance, but whoever does evil in Islam will be held accountable for the first and the last.'
