حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ سَهْلٍ، وَالْمِقْدَامُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ، قَالَا: ثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، حَدَّثَنِي مُوسَى بْنُ عُلَيِّ بْنِ رَبَاحٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ، قَالَ:
بَعَثَ إِلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ آخُذَ ثِيَابِي وَسِلَاحِي، فَأَتَيْتُهُ وَهُوَ يَتَوَضَّأُ فَصَعَّدَ فِيَّ النَّظَرَ ثُمَّ طَأْطَأَهُ، فَقَالَ: يَا عَمْرُو إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَبْعَثَكَ عَلَى جَيْشٍ لِيُظْفِرَكَ اللهُ وَيُسْلِمَكُمْ، وَأَزْعَبُ لَكَ زَعْبَةً مِنَ الْمَالِ صَالِحَةً "، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا أَسْلَمْتُ رَغْبَةً فِي الْمَالِ؛ وَلَكِنِّي أَسْلَمْتُ رَغْبَةً فِي الْإِسْلَامِ وَأَكُونَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ: " نِعْمَ، وَنِعْمًا بِالْمَالِ الصَّالِحِ لِلْمَرْءِ الصَّالِحِ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent for me and ordered me to take my clothes and my weapon. I came to him while he was performing ablution. He looked up at me, then lowered his gaze and said: "O ʿAmr, I intend to send you on a military expedition, may Allah grant you victory and keep you safe, and I will give you a good portion of wealth." I said: "O Messenger of Allah, I did not become Muslim out of desire for wealth; rather, I became Muslim out of desire for Islam and to be with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." He said: "Excellent! And how excellent is good wealth for a righteous person."
