Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ قَالَ نَاسٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنُؤَاخَذُ بِأَعْمَالِنَا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَقَالَ مَنْ أَحْسَنَ مِنْكُمْ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ فَلَا يُؤَاخَذُ بِهِ وَمَنْ أَسَاءَ فَيُؤْخَذُ بِعَمَلِهِ الْأَوَّلِ وَالْآخِرِ.
English Translation
Jarir told us, from Mansur, from Abu Wa'il, from Abdullah, who said: "People said: 'O Messenger of Allah, will we be held accountable for our deeds in the pre-Islamic era?' He said: 'Whoever among you does good in Islam will not be held accountable for it, and whoever does evil will be held accountable for his former and latter deeds.'"
