Hadith 4861
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ فَارِسٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا نُوحُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ بْنِ سَيَّارٍ الْمُؤَدِّبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِيهِ ابْنُ إِسْحَاق ، عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ مَعْمَرٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْفَغْوَاءِ الْخُزَاعِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : " دَعَانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَدْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَبْعَثَنِي بِمَالٍ إِلَى أَبِي سُفْيَانَ يَقْسِمُهُ فِي قُرَيْشٍ بِمَكَّةَ بَعْدَ الْفَتْحِ ، فَقَالَ : الْتَمِسْ صَاحِبًا , قَالَ : فَجَاءَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ الضَّمْرِيُّ ، فَقَالَ : بَلَغَنِي أَنَّكَ تُرِيدُ الْخُرُوجَ وَتَلْتَمِسُ صَاحِبًا ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : أَجَلْ ، قَالَ : فَأَنَا لَكَ صَاحِبٌ ، قَالَ : فَجِئْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قُلْتُ : قَدْ وَجَدْتُ صَاحِبًا ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ : مَنْ ؟ قُلْتُ :عَمْرُو بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ الضَّمْرِيُّ ، قَالَ : إِذَا هَبَطْتَ بِلَادَ قَوْمِهِ فَاحْذَرْهُ , فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ قَالَ الْقَائِلُ : أَخُوكَ الْبِكْرِيُّ وَلَا تَأْمَنْهُ ، فَخَرَجْنَا حَتَّى إِذَا كُنْتُ بِالْأَبْوَاءِ ، قَالَ : إِنِّي أُرِيدُ حَاجَةً إِلَى قَوْمِي بِوَدَّانَ ، فَتَلَبَّثْ لِي ، قُلْتُ رَاشِدًا , فَلَمَّا وَلَّى ذَكَرْتُ قَوْلَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَشَدَدْتُ عَلَى بَعِيرِي حَتَّى خَرَجْتُ أُوضِعُهُ حَتَّى إِذَا كُنْتُ بِالْأَصَافِرِ إِذَا هُوَ يُعَارِضُنِي فِي رَهْطٍ ، قَالَ : وَأَوْضَعْتُ فَسَبَقْتُهُ ، فَلَمَّا رَآنِي قَدْ فُتُّهُ انْصَرَفُوا وَجَاءَنِي ، فَقَالَ : كَانَتْ لِي إِلَى قَوْمِي حَاجَةٌ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : أَجَلْ وَمَضَيْنَا حَتَّى قَدِمْنَا مَكَّةَ ، فَدَفَعْتُ الْمَالَ إِلَى أَبِي سُفْيَانَ " .
Narrated Amr ibn al-Faghwa' al-Khuzai: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ called me. He intended to send me with some goods to Abu Sufyan to distribute among the Quraysh at Makkah after the conquest. He said: Search for a companion. Then Amr ibn Umayyah ad-Damri came to me and said: I have been told that you are intending to make a journey and are seeking a companion. I said: Yes. He said: I am your companion. I then went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: I have found a companion. He asked: Who is he? I replied: Amr ibn Umayyah ad-Damri. He said: When you come down to the territory of his people, be careful of him, for a maxim says: If one is your real brother, do not feel safe with him. So we proceeded, and when I reached al-Abwa', he said to me: I have some work with my people at Waddan, so stay here till I come back. I said: Do not lose your way. When he turned his back, I recalled the words of the Prophet ﷺ. So I rode my camel and galloped without stopping. When I reached al-Asafir, he was pursuing me with a group of men. So I galloped and forged ahead of him. When he saw me that I had outstripped him, they returned and he came to me. He said to me: I had some work with my people. I said: Yes. We then went on until we reached Makkah, and I gave the goods to Abu Sufyan.
