عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((خَلَقَ اللَّهُ آدَمَ حِينَ خَلَقَهُ فَضَرَبَ كَتِفَهُ الْيُمْنَى فَأَخْرَجَ ذُرِّيَّةً بَيْضَاءَ كَأَنَّهُمُ الذَّرُّ وَضَرَبَ كَتِفَهُ الْيُسْرَى فَأَخْرَجَ ذُرِّيَّةً سَوْدَاءَ كَأَنَّهُمُ الْحُمَمُ، فَقَالَ لِلَّذِي فِي يَمِينِهِ: إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ وَلَا أُبَالِي وَقَالَ لِلَّذِي فِي كَفِّهِ الْيُسْرَى: إِلَى النَّارِ وَلَا أُبَالِي))
Sayyiduna Abu Darda’ (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “When Allah Almighty created Adam (peace be upon him), He struck his right shoulder and from there white offspring emerged, as small as tiny ants. Then He struck his left shoulder and black offspring emerged, like coals. Then regarding the offspring from the right side, He said: These will go to Paradise and I do not care. And regarding the offspring from the left shoulder, He said: These will go to Hell and I am unconcerned.”
