Reports on Banu Amir

Sayyiduna Abu Juhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: We came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) at the place called al-Abtah, while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was in a red tent of his. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Who are you?" We said: "We are people of the tribe of Banu Amir." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Welcome! You are from me."

Nazzal (may Allah have mercy on him) said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, in the time of Jahiliyyah we and you were called Banu Abd Manaf. Today we are Banu Abdullah, and you too are Banu Abdullah."

Qatadah said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Allah, suffice me against Amir bin al-Tufayl, and grant guidance to the tribe of Banu Amir bin Sa'sa'ah."

Khashram al-Ja'fari (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Mula'ib al-Asinnah Amir bin Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) sent a messenger to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to ask him for medicine and for a cure from an illness that had befallen him. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent him honey, or a skin of honey.
