Appreciate your connections with others

This hadith explains that people are like mines of gold and silver, meaning that they are valuable and precious. It also states that those who were excellent during the days of ignorance, or before Islam was established, would be excellent in Islam if they understand it. Additionally, it explains that souls are troops collected together; this means that people who were close to each other in their past lives will have a connection in this life. Lastly, the hadith states that those who opposed one another before will be at variance with one another now. This teaches us to appreciate our connections with others and not let our differences get between us.
