أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ،
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ حِينَ بَعَثَ عَمْرَو بْنَ الْعَاصِ أَمِيرًا عَلَى الْجَيْشِ قَالَ: إِنِّي لَأَبْعَثُ الرَّجُلَ وَأَدَعُ مَنْ هُوَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْهُ، وَلَكِنَّهُ لَعَلَّهُ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَيْقَظَ عَيْنًا، وَأَشَدَّ سَفَرًا، أَوْ قَالَ: مَكِيدَةً
