Hadith 11871

حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ حَازِمٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ قَالَ قَالَ رَجُلٌ لِعَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يُحِبُّهُ أَلَيْسَ رَجُلًا صَالِحًا قَالَ بَلَى قَالَ قَدْ مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يُحِبُّكَ وَقَدِ اسْتَعْمَلَكَ فَقَالَ قَدِ اسْتَعْمَلَنِي فَوَاللَّهِ مَا أَدْرِي أَحُبًّا كَانَ لِي مِنْهُ أَمِ اسْتِعَانَةً بِي وَلَكِنْ سَأُحَدِّثُكَ بِرَجُلَيْنِ مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يُحِبُّهُمَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ وَعَمَّارُ بْنُ يَاسِرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا
It is narrated from Hasan Basri that a man said to Sayyiduna Amr bin Al-Aas (may Allah be pleased with him): "What is your opinion about the person whom the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) loved throughout his life? Would he not be a righteous man?" He replied: "Why not?" So the man said: "When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) departed from this world, he had appointed you as his governor." Sayyiduna Amr bin Al-Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "He did appoint me as governor, but by Allah! I do not know whether he appointed me because of his love for me or to seek my help. However, I will tell you that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) departed from this world, he loved two men: one was Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) and the other was Sayyiduna Ammar bin Yasir (may Allah be pleased with him)."
