from Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "You find that people are ˹like˺ minerals (hidden gems): those who were the best in the pre-Islamic period, are also the best in Islam, if they have ˹deep˺ understanding. You see that the best amongst the people in this respect (in positions of authority/leadership) are those who hate it most. And you see that the worst among the people is the two-faced ˹person˺ who appears to these with one face and others with another face."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «تَجِدُونَ النَّاسَ مَعَادِنَ خِيَارُهُمْ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، خِيَارُهُمْ فِي الإِسْلاَمِ إِذَا فَقِهُوا؛ وَتَجِدُونَ خَيْرَ النَّاسِ فِي هَذَا الشَّأْنِ أَشَدَّهُمْ لَهُ كَرَاهِيَةً؛ وَتَجِدُونَ شَرَّ النَّاسِ ذَا الْوَجْهَيْنِ الَّذِي يَأْتِي هَؤُلاَءِ بِوَجْهٍ وَيَأْتِي هَؤُلاَءِ بِوَجْهٍ۔»  

You would find people like those of mine, the good amongst you in the Days of Ignorance would be good amongst you in the days of Islam, provided they have an understanding of it and you will find good amongst people the persons who would be averse to position of authority until it is thrust upon them, and you will find the worst amongst persons one who has double face. He comes with one face to them and with the other face to the others. (Using translation from Muslim 2526a)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ تَجِدُونَ النَّاسَ مَعَادِنَ فَخِيَارُهُمْ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ خِيَارُهُمْ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ إِذَا فَقِهُوا وَتَجِدُونَ مِنْ خَيْرِ النَّاسِ فِي هَذَا الْأَمْرِ أَكْرَهَهُمْ لَهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ فِيهِ وَتَجِدُونَ مِنْ شَرِّ النَّاسِ ذَا الْوَجْهَيْنِ الَّذِي يَأْتِي هَؤُلَاءِ بِوَجْهٍ وَهَؤُلَاءِ بِوَجْهٍ  

You would find people like those of mine, the good amongst you in the Days of Ignorance would be good amongst you in the days of Islam, provided they have an understanding of it and you will find good amongst people the persons who would be averse to position of authority until it is thrust upon them, and you will find the worst amongst persons one who has double face. He comes with one face to them and with the other face to the others. (Using translation from Muslim 2526a)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «تَجِدُونَ النَّاسَ مَعَادِنَ فَخِيَارُهُمْ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ خِيَارُهُمْ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ إِذَا فَقُهُوا وَتَجِدُونَ خَيْرَ النَّاسِ فِي هَذَا الْأَمْرِ أَكْرَهَهُمْ لَهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقَعَ فِيهِ وَتَجِدُونَ مِنْ شَرِّ النَّاسِ ذَا الْوَجْهَيْنِ الَّذِي يَأْتِي هَؤُلَاءِ بِوَجْهٍ وَهَؤُلَاءِ بِوَجْهٍ»  

"تَجدُونَ النَّاسَ مَعَادِنَ؛ فَخيَارُهُم فِي الجَاهِلِيَّةِ خيَارُهُمْ فِي الإِسْلام، إِذَا فَقُهُوا، وَتَجدُونَ خيرَ النَّاسِ فِي هَذَا الشَّأن أشَدَّهُمْ كَرَاهِيَةً (قَبلَ أنْ يَقَعَ) وَتَجدُونَ شَره النَّاسِ (يَوْمَ القِيَامَةِ) عِنْدَ اللهِ ذَا الوَجْهَين؛ الَّذِي يَأتِي هَؤُلاءِ بوجْه، وَهَؤُلاءِ بوْجه".
