Sayyiduna Abu al-Darda' (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When Allah Almighty created Sayyiduna Adam (peace be upon him), He struck his right shoulder and brought out his offspring, white in colour like tiny ants; then He struck his left shoulder and brought out his offspring, black in colour, who were like charcoal. Then Allah Almighty said about those on the right side: 'These will go to Paradise, and I do not care.' And about those who were in the left palm He said: 'These will go to Hell, and I do not care.'"
Ahmad, al-Bazzar and al-Tabarani recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.
