إِنَّ نَاساً أَتَوْا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) بَعْدَ مَا أَسْلَمُوا فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَ يُؤْخَذُ الرَّجُلُ مِنَّا بِمَا كَانَ عَمِلَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ بَعْدَ إِسْلَامِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) مَنْ حَسُنَ إِسْلَامُهُ وَ صَحَّ يَقِينُ إِيمَانِهِ لَمْ يُؤَاخِذْهُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى بِمَا عَمِلَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَ مَنْ سَخُفَ إِسْلَامُهُ وَ لَمْ يَصِحَّ يَقِينُ إِيمَانِهِ أَخَذَهُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى بِالْأَوَّلِ وَ الْآخِرِ .


Translation

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Ibn Mahboub, from Jameel Bin Salih, from Abu Ubeyda, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Some people came to Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> after having become Muslims, and they said, ‘O Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup>! Would the man from us be seized with what he had done during the pre-Islamic period, after his professing to Islam?’ So Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> said to them: ‘The one who makes his Islam to be good and corrects the certainty of his <span class="iTxt">Emān</span>, Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Blessed and High will not Seize him for what he had done during the pre-Islamic period; and the one whose Islam is absurd and he does not correct the certainty of his <span class="iTxt">Emān</span>, Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Blessed and High will Seize him for the former and the latter’.
