Hadith text
Narrated Abu Huraira:Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "You see that the people are of different natures. Those who were the best in the pre-Islamic period, are also the best in Islam if they comprehend religious knowledge. You see that the best amongst the people in this respect (i.e. ambition of ruling) are those who hate it most. And you see that the worst among people is the double faced (person) who appears to these with one face and to the others with another face (i.e a hypocrite)
Abu Huraira bataate hain: Allah ke Rasool ne kaha, "Tum dekhte ho ke log alag-alag prakriti ke hote hain. Jo jahiliyat ke daur mein sabse behtar the, woh Islam mein bhi sabse behtar hain, agar unhe deeni gyaan ho jaaye. Tum dekhte ho ke sab logon mein is (hukmarani ki cheshta) mein sabse behtar woh hain jo isse sabse zyada nafrat karte hain. Aur tum dekhte ho ke sab logon mein sabse bura do-chehre wala shaks hota hai jo ek ko ek chehra dikhata hai aur doosre ko doosra chehra (yaani munafik)."
