[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, indeed I have freed forty slaves in the pre-Islamic era." He said, "You have embraced Islam for what preceded it."
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي أَعْتَقْتُ أَرْبَعِينَ مُحَرَّرًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ قَالَ «أَسْلَمْتَ عَلَى مَا سَبَقَ لَكَ»
[Machine] He heard Hakim ibn Hizam say, "I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, I have emancipated forty slaves in the pre-Islamic period.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'You have embraced Islam for what good you have done before.'
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ حَكِيمَ بْنَ حِزَامٍ يَقُولُ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي أَعْتَقْتُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ أَرْبَعِينَ مُحَرَّرًا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَسْلَمْتَ عَلَى مَا سَبَقَ لَكَ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ»
