It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that a Bedouin came to the presence of the Messenger and asked a question: O Messenger of Allah! What is the Sur? He replied: "It is a horn in which it will be blown."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: "What will become of you when you will be among idle and inferior people?" I said, "O Messenger of Allah! How will that be?" The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When there will be corruption in promises and trusts, and people will become like this (the narrator interlaced his fingers to demonstrate)." I said, "O Messenger of Allah! What is your command for me at that time?" He said: "Fear Allah, adopt good deeds, avoid evil deeds, associate with the elite, and keep yourself away from the common people."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Whoever seeks fame among people through his deeds, Allah hands him over to them and humiliates and disgraces him. Upon saying this, tears began to flow from the eyes of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him).

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Amr, may Allah be pleased with him, that whatever I heard from the tongue of the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, I used to write it down so that I could remember it. The people of Quraysh forbade me from this and said, "You write down everything you hear from the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, even though the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, is also a human being; sometimes he speaks in anger and sometimes in happiness." After what those people said, I stopped writing and mentioned this to the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. The Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Write! By the One in whose hand is my soul, nothing comes out from my tongue except the truth."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Allah Almighty will not take away knowledge by snatching it from among the people, but He will take away knowledge by taking away the scholars. Until, when no scholar remains, people will take the ignorant as their leaders, and they will be asked for religious rulings, and they will issue fatwas without knowledge. As a result, they will go astray themselves and will lead others astray as well.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Amr, may Allah be pleased with him, that once I saw the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, performing voluntary prayers while sitting. I said, "I have been told that you say the reward for praying while sitting is half of that of praying while standing?" The Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "I am not like you."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) saw two garments dyed with safflower on his body, he said: "This is the clothing of the disbelievers, do not wear it."

Abu Subrah says that Ubaidullah bin Ziyad used to ask various people about the Prophet Muhammad’s (peace be upon him) Pond, and even though he had already asked this question to Sayyiduna Abu Barzah Aslami (may Allah be pleased with him), Bara bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him), Aidh bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him), and another companion (may Allah be pleased with him), he still denied the Hawd al-Kawthar. One day I said to him,“I will narrate to you such a hadith in which there is complete healing for this issue. Once your father gave me some wealth and sent me to Sayyiduna Amir Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him). I met Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him), and he narrated to me a hadith which he himself had heard from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). He dictated that hadith to me, and I wrote it down with my own hand without omitting or adding a single letter.”He narrated to me this hadith: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said,“Allah Almighty does not like any kind of indecency, whether deliberate or unintentional. And the Hour will not be established until indecency becomes widespread everywhere, severing of ties of kinship, wrongdoing, and bad neighbors become common, and until the treacherous is considered trustworthy and the trustworthy is considered treacherous.”And he said,“Remember, the place of your appointment is my Pond, whose length and width are equal, that is, from Aylah to Makkah Mukarramah, which is about a month’s journey. Its drinking vessels will be as numerous as the stars. Its water will be whiter than silver. Whoever drinks from it will never feel thirsty again.”Upon hearing this hadith, Ubaidullah bin Ziyad said,“I have not heard a stronger hadith about the Hawd al-Kawthar than this until now.”Thus, he affirmed it and kept that scroll with him.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Amr, may Allah be pleased with him, that I heard the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, saying: A Muslim is one from whose tongue and hand other Muslims are safe, and a Muhajir (emigrant) is one who abandons what Allah has forbidden.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that I memorized the Holy Qur'an and recited the entire Qur'an in one night. When the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) found out, he said: "I fear that after some time you will become weary. Complete the recitation of the Holy Qur'an once every month." I submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! Allow me to benefit from my strength and youth." This continued, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stopped at twenty, ten, and then seven days. I also requested permission for less than seven days, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) refused.
