3304/3305 - people are metals

3304/3305 – حدثني إسحاق بن إبراهيم: أخبرنا جرير، عن عمارة، عن أبي زرعة،عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه، 

عنرسول الله ﷺ قال: (تجدون الناس معادن، خيارهم في الجاهلية خيارهم في الإسلام إذا فقهوا، وتجدون خير الناس في هذا الشأن أشد له كراهية، وتجدون شر الناس ذا الوجهين، الذي يأتي هؤلاء بوجه، ويأتي هؤلاء بوجه). 

3304/3305 - Ishaq bin Ibrahim told me: Jarir told us, on the authority of Umarah, on the authority of Abu Zara’a, on the authority of Abu Hurairah, may God be pleased with him, On the authority of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, he said: (You will find people minerals, their best in the Jahiliyyah, their best in Islam if they has jurisprudence, and you will find the best of people in this regard more hated, and you will find the worst of people with two faces, who comes to these with a face, and who comes to these with a face. 

We benefit from the following hadith:

1 - TheMessenger - may God’s prayers and peace be upon him - likened people tominerals, and it is an eloquent analogy that summarizes your life andexperiences in a few second, a jeweler who excels in his work turns a piece ofmetal in his hands, so he knows at first sight if it is precious or cheap, Themerchant also, from the abundance of people who buy from him, knows who is good and who is bad from the first look, and the Messenger also has a look becauseof the invitation, because of his message, he summarized for you his experiencein the message with resonant words that are preserved in the mind and do notcome out, because of his message, he summarized for you his experience in themessage with resonant words that are preserved in the mind and do not come outand whenever you passed through life you see the peoples are minerals, youremembered his saying - may God’s prayers and peace be upon him. 

2 - What is themeaning of the best of them in ignorance, the best of them in Islam with one condition (if they understand Islam) why? Because people are minerals, and what does this mean on the ground? have you dealt with a Muslim who is new to Islam? did you see a person and you liked hisbehavior and said I wish he was a Muslim? Is it, that God - the Most High - doesnot view our external appearance - which the common people are concerned with, but the place of seeing God is one and does not change with the change of time, place or persons, and it is (the heart), If he sees in you good qualities, he will introduce you in one way or another to Islam -If he sees in you good qualities, he will introduce you in one way or another to Islam - Because it isthe religion of choice for him, God Almighty says (the religion with God is Islam). If you accept it, you will be with him one of the purest and best minerals, why? because people are often arrogant in accepting the truth, because it has reached a great degree of worldly knowledge, Because he has reached a position that is difficult for him to enter Islam or otherwise, if he is satisfied thathis situation will be turned upside down, then he is for the sake of an idea, so he is one of the best people, The evidence for this is that recent studies confirm how difficult it is to convert from one religion to another, and that it is one of the biggest challenges that can afflict a person in his life, so they are rewarded twice, especially the People of the Book.
