عن أُسَبْرِ بن جابر قال
كان عمر بن الخطابِ إذا أَتى عليه أمدَادُ أَهْلِ اليمنِ سألهم: أفِيكُم أُوَيْسُ بنُ عامرٍ؟ حتى أتَى عَلى أويس، فقال: أنت أويسُ بْنُ عامرٍ؟ قال: نعم، قال: مِنْ مراد، ثم من قَرَنٍ؟ قال: نعم، قال: فكانَ بك برصٌ فبرأتَ مِنْه إلا موضعَ دِرْهَمٍ؟ قال: نعم، قال: ألَك والدةٌ؟ قال: نعم، قال: سمعت رسول اللَّه ﷺ يقول: يأتى عليكم أويسُ بنُ عامرٍ مع أَمْدادِ أَهْلِ اليمن من مُراد، ثم من قرَن، كان به برص؛ فبرأَ منه إلَّا موضعَ دِرهم، له والدةٌ هو بها بَرٌّ، لو أقسم على اللَّه لأبره، فَإِن اسْتَطَعْت أن يستغفرَ لَك فافْعَل، فاستغفرْ لى؛ فاستغفرَ له، فقال له: أينَ تُريدُ؟ قال: الكوفة قال: ألا أَكْتُبُ لك إلى عَامِلِها؟ قال: أكون في غُبَّرِ النَّاسِ أحبَّ إلىَّ، فلما كان من العام المقبلِ حجَّ رجل من أشْرَافِهم؛ فوافقَ عمرَ فسأله عن أويسٍ، قال: تركته رثَّ الهَيئة، قليلَ المتاع، قال: سمعت رسول اللَّه ﷺ يقولُ: يأتى عليكم أويسُ بْنُ عامرٍ مع أمدادِ أَهْلِ اليمن من مراد، ثم من قرَن، كان به برصٌ؛ فبرأ منه إلا موضعَ درهمٍ، له والدةٌ هو بها برٌّ، لو أقسمَ على اللَّه لأَبَرَّه فإن استطعت أن يستغفرَ لكَ فافعل، فأتى أويسًا فقال: استغفر لى، قال: أنت أحْدَثُ عهدًا بسفر صالحٍ فاستغفرْ لى، قال: استغفر لى، قال: لقيتَ عمر؟ قال: نعم، فاستغفرَ له؛ فَفَطن له الناس؛ فانطلقَ على وجهه

When 'Umar ibn al-Khattab came upon the reinforcements of the people of Yemen, he would ask them: Is Uways ibn 'Amir among you? until he came upon Uways and said: Are you Uways ibn 'Amir? He said: Yes. He said: From Murad, then from Qaran? He said: Yes. He said: You had leprosy, and you were cured of it except for a spot the size of a dirham? He said: Yes. He said: Do you have a mother? He said: Yes. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Uways ibn 'Amir will come to you with the reinforcements of the people of Yemen, from Murad, then from Qaran. He had leprosy, and he was cured of it except for a spot the size of a dirham. He has a mother to whom he is dutiful; if he swore by Allah, Allah would fulfil it. So if you can, ask him to seek forgiveness for you, so do that. So he sought forgiveness for him. Then he said to him: Where are you heading? He said: Kufah. He said: Shall I write for you to its governor? He said: Being among the obscure people is more beloved to me. When the following year came, a man of their nobles performed Hajj and met 'Umar, and asked him about Uways. He said: I left him in worn-out condition, with little belongings. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Uways ibn 'Amir will come to you with the reinforcements of the people of Yemen, from Murad, then from Qaran. He had leprosy, and he was cured except for a spot the size of a dirham. He has a mother to whom he is dutiful; if he swore by Allah, Allah would fulfil it. So if you can, ask him to seek forgiveness for you, so do that. He came to Uways and said: Seek forgiveness for me. He said: You are more recent in your return from a righteous journey, so you seek forgiveness for me. He said: Seek forgiveness for me. He said: Did you meet 'Umar? He said: Yes. So he sought forgiveness for him, and people noticed him, so he went off on his way."
