Mukhtasar Sahih Al-Bukhari
Sahih
عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قالَ: قالَ رَجُلٌ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، أَنُؤَاخَذُ بِمَا عَمِلْنَا في الجَاهِلِيَّةِ؟ قَالَ: (مَنْ أَحْسَنَ فِي الإِسْلَامِ لَمْ يُؤَاخَذْ بِمَا عَمِلَ فِي الجَاهِلِيَّةِ، وَمَنْ أَسَاءَ فِي الإِسْلَامِ يُؤَاخَذُ بِالأَوَّلِ وَالآخِرِ).
Narrated Ibn Mas'ûd
A man said, "O Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ)! Shall we be punished for what we did in the Period of Ignorance?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whoever does good in Islâm will not be punished for what he did in the Period of Ignorance and whoever does evil in Islâm will be punished for his former and later (bad deeds)." [9:56-0.B]
