Narrated `Urwa bin Az-Zubair: Hakim bin Hizam said, O Allah's Apostle! I used to do good deeds in the Pre-Islamic period of Ignorance, e.g., keeping good relations with my Kith and kin, manumitting slaves and giving alms. Shall I receive a reward for all that? Allah's Apostle replied, You embraced Islam with all the good deeds which you did in the past.
