Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 3189 — he said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent word
حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرٌ ، قَالَ : نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي مُوسَى ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ ، قَالَ : بَعَثَ إِلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ : خُذْ سَيْفَكَ وَسِلَاحَكَ فَأَخَذْتُ سَيْفِي وَسِلَاحِي ، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَوَجَدْتُهُ يَتَوَضَّأُ ، فَصَعَّدَ فِيَّ النَّظَرَ ، ثُمَّ طَأْطَأَهُ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : I " يَا عَمْرُو ، إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَبْعَثَكَ عَلَى جَيْشٍ ، يُغْنِمَكَ اللهُ وَيُسَلِّمَكَ ، وَأَزْعَبُ لَكَ فِي الْمَالِ ، زَعْبَةً صَالِحَةً I " . فَقَالَ : وَاللهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا أَسْلَمْتُ لِمَالٍ ، وَلَكِنِّي أَسْلَمْتُ رَغْبَةً فِي الْإِسْلَامِ وَلِأَنْ أَكُونَ مَعَكَ ، فَقَالَ : I " يَا عَمْرُو ، نِعِمَّا بِالْمَالِ الصَّالِحِ لِلرَّجُلِ الصَّالِحِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent word to me: Take your sword and your weapons. So I took my sword and weapons, then I came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and found him (peace and blessings be upon him) performing ablution. He (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his blessed gaze to look at me, then lowered it and said: 'O Amr! I want to send you as the commander of an army; Allah Almighty will grant you spoils and also keep you safe, and I will assign you a good share of the wealth.' I said: 'O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! By Allah, I did not accept Islam for wealth; rather, I became Muslim out of desire for Islam and so that I might be in your (peace and blessings be upon him) company.' He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'O Amr! How excellent is pure wealth for a righteous man!'"
