It is narrated from Hazrat Amr bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a message to me to come to him dressed in my clothes and armed. When I presented myself, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was performing ablution. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) looked at me from head to toe, then lowered his gaze and said, "It is my intention to appoint you as the commander of an army and send you forth. May Allah return you safe and with spoils of war, and I desire good wealth for you." I submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! (peace and blessings be upon him) I did not accept Islam for the sake of wealth and riches. I accepted Islam with heartfelt desire and for the purpose that I may attain the company of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "How excellent is lawful wealth for a righteous man."
Hadith 17803
It is narrated from Hazrat Amr bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) that do not create confusion for us regarding the Sunnah of our Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him); if the master of an umm walad passes away, her waiting period (‘iddah) will be four months and ten days.
Hadith 17804

Hazrat Amr bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) once asked one of his slaves the reason for seeking permission from Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) to meet his wife, Hazrat Asma bint Umais (may Allah be pleased with her).

Ahsan (may Allah have mercy on him) says that a man asked Hazrat Amr bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with him): "Tell me, if the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) departed from this world loving a certain person, would that person be a righteous man?" He replied, "Why not?" The man said, "Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) departed from this world loving you, and he used to assign you various responsibilities?" He replied, "This is indeed true, but shall I tell you something? By Allah! I do not know whether the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) treated me in this way out of love or for the purpose of winning my heart. However, I can testify to this: until he departed from this world, he loved two men—one was Ammar, the son of Sumayyah (may Allah be pleased with him), and the other was Abdullah bin Mas'ud, the son of Umm Abd (may Allah be pleased with him)."
Hadith 17808
Abdullah bin Abi Al-Hazil (may Allah have mercy on him) says that Hazrat Amr bin Al-Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) used to take care of us and look after us. Once, a man from the tribe of Bakr bin Wa'il said that if the people of Quraysh do not desist, the rule will slip from their hands and pass to the majority of the Arabs. Hazrat Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) heard this and said, "You are mistaken. I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say that the Quraysh will remain the leaders of the people in every good and bad matter until the Day of Judgment."
Hadith 17809
Hazrat Amr bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) once, while delivering a sermon in Egypt, said to the people: "How far you have gone from the way of your Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)?

أَلَا كَانَ مَفْزَعُكُمْ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَإِلَى رَسُولِهِ ؟ ! " ثُمَّ قَالَ : " أَلَا فَعَلْتُمْ كَمَا فَعَلَ هَذَانِ الرَّجُلَانِ الْمُؤْمِنَانِ ؟ ! " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Amr bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once there was fear and panic spread in Madinah Munawwarah. I went to Salim, the freed slave of Hazrat Abu Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him), and he had his sword strapped on. I also took my sword and strapped it on. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O people! In this time of panic, why did you not come to Allah and His Messenger? Then he said: Why did you not do as these two believing men did?
Hadith 17811
It is narrated from Hazrat Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) appointed me as the commander over the army of Dhat al-Salasil.

The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied, "Aisha." I asked, "Among the men?" He said, "Her father." I asked, "Then who?" He said, "Umar." In this way, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned the names of several men.

It is narrated from Hazrat Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that when this incident was mentioned to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Amr! Did you lead your companions in prayer while you were in a state of impurity?" I submitted, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! The night when ghusl became obligatory upon me, it was an extremely cold night and I feared that if I performed ghusl, I would perish. And I remembered the saying of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic: 'And do not kill yourselves. Indeed, Allah is to you ever Merciful.' (وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ بِكُمْ رَحِيمًا) So I performed tayammum and offered the prayer." Upon hearing this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) smiled and did not say anything.

" إِنَّ الْإِسْلَامَ يَجُبُّ مَا كَانَ قَبْلَهُ ، وَإِنَّ الْهِجْرَةَ تَجُبُّ مَا كَانَ قَبْلَهَا " . قَالَ عَمْرٌو : فَوَاللَّهِ إِنْ كُنْتُ لَأَشَدَّ النَّاسِ حَيَاءً مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَمَا مَلَأْتُ عَيْنِي مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَلَا رَاجَعْتُهُ بِمَا أُرِيدُ ، حَتَّى لَحِقَ بِاللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ حَيَاءً مِنْهُ.
It is narrated from Hazrat Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that I submitted in the presence of the Messenger of Allah, "O Messenger of Allah! (peace and blessings be upon him) I pledge allegiance to you on the condition that all my previous sins are forgiven." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Islam wipes out all the sins that came before it, and migration also wipes out all the sins that came before it." He says that I was more modest before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) than anyone else, so I never looked at him with full eyes, nor did I ever argue with him in my desires, until he met Allah, the Exalted.

(peace and blessings be upon him) You have mentioned many things." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Then gentle speech, feeding others, being easy-going, and good character are the most virtuous deeds." He said, "I only want to know one thing."

It is narrated from Hazrat Amr bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once he heard a man reciting a verse of the Holy Qur'an, so he asked him, "Who taught you this verse?" He replied, "The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did." He said, "The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) taught me this verse in a different way." So both of them went to the presence of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). One of them referred to the verse and recited it. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "This verse was revealed in this way." The other recited it according to his own way and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), was this verse not revealed in this way?" The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "It was revealed in this way as well." Then he said, "This Holy Qur'an has been revealed upon seven letters. Whichever letter you recite according to, you will recite correctly. Therefore, do not dispute in the Holy Qur'an, for disputing in the Qur'an is disbelief."
Hadith 17822
It is narrated from Hazrat Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: "The nation in which usury becomes widespread is afflicted with famine, and the nation in which bribery becomes common is overcome with fear."

Hazrat Amr bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) once sought permission to meet Hazrat Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her). Hazrat Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) granted him permission. He asked, "Is Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) here?" She replied, "No." Upon this, he left. The second time, Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) was present, so he went inside. Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) asked him the reason for seeking permission, so Hazrat Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade us from going to women without the husband's permission.

It is narrated from Hazrat Amr bin Aas that once two men brought their dispute to the Prophet (peace be upon him). The Prophet (peace be upon him) said to Hazrat Amr (may Allah be pleased with him), "O Amr! Decide between them." He submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! (peace be upon him) Are you not more deserving of this than me?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "O Amr! Decide between them." He submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! (peace be upon him) Are you not more deserving of this than me?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Even so, I command you to do this." He said, "If I decide between them, what reward will I get?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "If you decide between them and are correct, you will get ten good deeds, and if you strive but make a mistake in the decision, you will get one good deed." The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain.

Do you see anything?” We replied, “We see a few crows, among which there is a white crow whose beak and both legs are red.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Only those women will enter Paradise who, among the group of crows, are like this crow.”

It is narrated from Hazrat Amr bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with him): When Allah Almighty created the truth of Islam in my heart, I presented myself before the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to pledge allegiance. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) extended his blessed hand towards me. I said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), I will not pledge allegiance to you until you forgive my past mistakes." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "O Amr! Do you not know that migration wipes out all the sins that came before it? O Amr! Do you not know that Islam wipes out all the sins that came before it!"
