4861. It was narrated from ‘Abdullāh bin ‘Amr bin Al-Faghwā’ Al-Khuzā’ī that his father said: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ called me – as he wanted to send some wealth with me to Abū Sufyān, to distribute it among Quraish in Makkah, after the Conquest – and he said: ‘Look for a companion.’
'Amr bin Umayyah Ad-Damri came to me, and said: 'I heard that you want to go out and are seeking a companion.' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'I will come with you.' I came to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and said: 'I have found a companion.' He said: 'Who?' I said: "Amr bin Umayyah Ad-Damri." He said: 'When you stop in the land of his people, beware, for as the saying goes, "Do not feel safe from your own brother."' We went out, and when we were in Al-Abwā', he said: 'I have an errand with my people in Waddān; will you wait for me here?' I said: 'May you be guided.' When he left, I remembered the words of the Prophet ﷺ, and I urged my camel on, and when I came out, I made it gallop. When I reached Al-Aṣāfir, I saw that he was pursuing me with a group of men. I galloped and outran him, and when he saw that I had outrun him, they turned back, and he came to me, and said: 'I had an errand with my people.' I said: 'Yes.' We carried on until we came to Makkah, and I gave the wealth to Abū Sufyān." (Da'if)
