Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ابْنَا الْعَاصِ مُؤْمِنَانِ عَمْرٌو وَهِشَامٌ.
English Translation
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: 'Trials will be presented to the hearts like a mat, reed by reed. Any heart that absorbs them will have a black spot placed in it. Any heart that rejects them will have a white spot placed in it. Until there are two types of hearts: one white like a smooth stone, which is not harmed by any trial as long as the heavens and earth endure; and one black, murky, like an overturned vessel — it neither recognizes good nor rejects evil.'
