أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا الْعَنْبَرِيُّ ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ السَّلَامِ ثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ ثَنَا عَطَاءُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ الْحَلَبِيُّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْأَعْمَشَ يَقُولُ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيُّ

✧ We witnessed Siffin, and when we made a truce, these would enter the camp of those and those would enter the camp of these. I saw four men moving along: Mu'awiyah ibn Abi Sufyan, Abu al-A'war al-Sulami, 'Amr ibn al-'As, and his son. I heard 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr say to his father 'Amr, "We have killed this man, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said about him what he said." He said, "Which man?" He said, "'Ammar ibn Yasir. Do you not remember the day the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was building the mosque, and we were carrying one brick at a time while 'Ammar was carrying two bricks at a time? He passed by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ carrying two bricks at a time, and you were among those present." He said, "Indeed, the transgressing party will kill you, and you are among the people of Paradise." Then 'Amr went in to Mu'awiyah and said, "We have killed this man, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said about him what he said." He said, "Be quiet! By Allah, you keep wallowing in your own urine. Did we kill him? It was 'Ali and his companions who brought him and threw him among us." It is, as you see, an error.
