حدثنا عفان ، حدثنا حماد يعني ابن سلمة ، اخبرنا عمار يعني ابن ابي عمار ، عن ابن عباس ، قال: اتى علي زمان وانا اقول اولاد المسلمين مع المسلمين، واولاد المشركين مع المشركين، حتى حدثني فلان ، عن فلان ، ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم سئل عنهم، فقال: " الله اعلم بما كانوا عاملين"، قال: فلقيت الرجل، فاخبرني، فامسكت عن قولي .
It is narrated from Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that at one time I held the opinion that the children of Muslims would be with the Muslims and the children of the polytheists would be with the polytheists, until a certain man narrated to me from another that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the children of the polytheists, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah knows best what deeds they would have done." Then I met another man and he also told me the same thing, so I withdrew from my opinion.
