حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، وَأَبِي، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ قُلْنَا ‏:‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنُؤَاخَذُ بِمَا كُنَّا نَفْعَلُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ ‏:‏ ‏ "‏ مَنْ أَحْسَنَ فِي الإِسْلاَمِ لَمْ يُؤَاخَذْ بِمَا كَانَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَمَنْ أَسَاءَ أُخِذَ بِالأَوَّلِ وَالآخِرِ ‏"‏ .

Narrator: ‘Abdullah

English translation
It was narrated that ‘Abdullah said: “We said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, will we be taken to task for what we did in the Ignorance period?’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Whoever does good in Islam (i.e., after becoming a Muslim) he will not be taken to task for what he did in the Ignorance period, but whoever does evil (i.e., after entering Islam) he will be taken to task for both the former and the latter.’”
বাংলা অনুবাদ
। আবদুল্লাহ (রাঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আমরা বললাম, হে আল্লাহর রাসূল! আমরা জাহিলী যুগে যা করেছি, সে সম্পর্কে কি আমাদের জাবাবদিহি করতে হবে? রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেনঃ যারা ইসলাম গ্রহণের পর ভালো কাজ করেছে তাদেরকে জাহিলী যুগের কৃতকর্ম সম্পর্কে জবাবদিহি করতে হবে না। কিন্তুু যে ব্যক্তি মন্দ কাজ করবে, তাকে পূর্বাপর সকল কৃতকর্মের জন্য জবাবদিহি করতে হবে।
