حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، قََالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا عَمَّارُ بْنُ أَبِي عَمَّارٍ ، قََالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ، قََالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قََالَ : " النَّاسُ مَعَادِنُ فِي الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ ، خِيَارُهُمْ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ خِيَارُهُمْ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ إِذَا فَقِهُوا " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: People are like hidden treasures (mines) of good and evil. Those among them who were the best in the time of ignorance are also the best in the time of Islam, provided they become knowledgeable in religion.
