حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا وَائِلٍ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: قُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَرَأَيْتَ مَا عَمِلْنَا فِي الشِّرْكِ، نُؤَاخَذُ بِهِ؟ قَالَ: " مَنْ أَحْسَنَ مِنْكُمْ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ، لَمْ يُؤَاخَذْ بِمَا عَمِلَ فِي الشِّرْكِ، وَمَنْ أَسَاءَ مِنْكُمْ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ، أُخِذَ بِمَا عَمِلَ فِي الشِّرْكِ وَالْإِسْلَامِ " (٣)، ،

English translation

It is narrated from Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that once some people asked: O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)! Will we be held accountable for the deeds committed during the time of ignorance? The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "When you accept Islam and adopt good deeds, then you will not be held accountable for the deeds of the time of ignorance, but if you continue to do evil deeds after accepting Islam, then you will be held accountable for both the former and the latter deeds."
