Do kind and generous acts towards others regardless of their religion or background; Make a difference now even if you haven't done so before; Believe that your good deeds will always be accepted by God as an act of righteousness.

This hadith tells us about the story of Hakim bin Hizam who lived during the pre-Islamic period of ignorance. He was known to be a generous person and would often perform good deeds such as manumitting slaves and distributing charity in the form of camels. When he embraced Islam, he repeated these same acts of kindness and asked Allah's Messenger what his opinion was on his previous good deeds. Allah's Messenger told him that all those good deeds were accepted by God even before he became Muslim. This hadith teaches us that no matter what our religion is or where we come from, if we do something kind or generous it will always be accepted by God as an act of righteousness. It also shows us that it is never too late to start doing something positive for others; even if you have not done so before, you can still make a difference now!
