There was people who understood that Allah is one, by themselves. For example Kus bin Saide... These people are in Heaven
There was people who corrupted the belief of Tevhid(Belief that Allah is one) and formed a paganistic religion, and gathered people around themselves. Like Amr bin Luhay and other idolators.. These people are in Hell
There was people who do not have a belief either way, and dont have that kind of concepts in their lifes. These people are thought by scholars to be of fetret.
Also there was believers of the religion of Abraham(pbuh) in the pre islamic Arabs society. These people were called Hanif, and they were believing in that Allah is one.
