Hisham bin Urwah narrates: I heard Sayyiduna Abdullah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them both) when the nobility of the Jahiliyyah (pre-Islamic era) was mentioned in his presence. He said: "Leave this, for Islam has made flourish houses that were obscure, and has made obscure houses that used to flourish. If you refuse (to accept this), then when the man from Banu Tamim bin Jud'an died, people divided the glory among themselves after him."
Al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains Ibn Abi al-Zinad, who is da'if (weak).
