أَخْبَرَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ فِرَاسٍ الْفَقِيهُ بِمَكَّةَ ثنا بَكْرُ بْنُ سُهَيْلٍ الدِّمْيَاطِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ حَدَّثَنِي مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَبْسَةَ قَالَ
رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَهُوَ نَازِلٌ بِعُكَاظٍ فَقُلْتُ مَنْ مَعَكَ عَلَى هَذَا الْأَمْرِ؟ فَقَالَ رَجُلَانِ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَبِلَالٌ «فَأَسْلَمْتُ وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي وَأَنَا رُبْعُ الْإِسْلَامِ» صَحِيحُ الْإِسْنَادِ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ حذفه الذهبي من التلخيص لضعفه

✧ I saw the Prophet ﷺ while he was encamped at Ukaz. I said: Who is with you in this matter? He said: Two men, Abu Bakr and Bilal. So I embraced Islam, and I saw myself as a quarter of Islam. Its chain is sahih, but they did not record it. Al-Dhahabi omitted it from the Talkhis due to its weakness.
