Ibn ʿAbbas said to me and to his son ʿAli, "Go to Abu Saʿid and listen to what he narrates." So we went and found him in a garden looking after it. He picked up his Rida', wore it and sat down and started narrating till the topic of the construction of the mosque reached. He said, "We were carrying one adobe at a time while ʿAmmar was carrying two. The Prophet ﷺ saw him and started removing the dust from his body and said, "May Allah be Merciful to ʿAmmar. He will be inviting them (i.e. his murderers, the rebellious group) to Paradise and they will invite him to Hell-fire." ʿAmmar said, "I seek refuge with Allah from affliction."  

كُنَّا نَحْمِلُ لَبِنَةً لَبِنَةً وَعَمَّارٌ لَبِنَتَيْنِ لَبِنَتَيْنِ فَرَآهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَيَنْفُضُ التُّرَابَ عَنْهُ وَيَقُولُ وَيْحَ عَمَّارٍ تَقْتُلُهُ الْفِئَةُ الْبَاغِيَةُ يَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ وَيَدْعُونَهُ إِلَى النَّارِ قَالَ يَقُولُ عَمَّارٌ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الْفِتَنِ  

[Machine] "He said to him and his son Ali, 'Go to Abu Sa'id and listen to his words about the matter of the Khawarij.' So they went and found him fixing a wall. When he saw us, he took his cloak, covered himself with it, and then began to speak to us until he mentioned it in the mosque. He said, 'We used to carry one brick at a time, while the construction workers carried two bricks at a time.' The Prophet ﷺ saw him and began to shake the dust off his head, saying, 'O Ammar, why don't you carry one brick at a time as your companions do?' Ammar replied, 'I seek reward from Allah.' The Prophet ﷺ shook his head and said, 'Woe to Ammar, the opposing faction will kill him.' Ammar said, 'I seek refuge in Allah from trials and tribulations.'"  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَهُ وَلِابْنِهِ عَلِيٍّ انْطَلِقَا إِلَى أَبِي سَعِيدٍ فَاسْمَعَا مِنْهُ حَدِيثَهُ فِي شَأْنِ الْخَوَارِجِ فَانْطَلَقَا فَإِذَا هُوَ فِي حَائِطٍ لَهُ يُصْلِحُ فَلَمَّا رَآنَا أَخَذَ رِدَاءَهُ ثُمَّ احْتَبَى ثُمَّ أَنْشَأَ يُحَدِّثُنَا حَتَّى عَلَا ذِكْرُهُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَقَالَ كُنَّا نَحْمِلُ لَبِنَةً لَبِنَةً وَعَمَّارٌ يَحْمِلُ لَبِنَتَيْنِ لَبِنَتَيْنِ فَرَآهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَجَعَلَ يَنْفُضُ التُّرَابَ عَنْ رَأْسِهِ وَيَقُولُ «يَا عَمَّارُ أَلَا تَحْمِلُ لَبِنَةً لَبِنَةً كَمَا يَحْمِلُ أَصْحَابُكَ؟» قَالَ إِنِّي أُرِيدُ الْأَجْرَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ قَالَ فَجَعَلَ يَنْفُضُ وَيَقُولُ «وَيْحَ عَمَّارٍ تَقْتُلُهُ الْفِئَةُ الْبَاغِيَةُ» قَالَ وَيَقُولُ عَمَّارٌ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الْفِتَنِ

رَآنَا جَاءَ فَأَخَذَ رِدَاءَهُ ثُمَّ قَعَدَ فَأَنْشَأَ يُحَدِّثُنَا حَتَّى أَتَى عَلَى ذِكْرِ بِنَاءِ الْمَسْجِدِ قَالَ كُنَّا نَحْمِلُ لَبِنَةً وَعَمَّارٌ لَبِنَتَيْنِ لَبِنَتَيْنِ فَرَآهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَجَعَلَ يَنْفُضُ التُّرَابَ عَنْ رَأْسِهِ وَيَقُولُ «يَا عَمَّارُ أَلَا تَحْمِلُ مَا يَحْمِلُ أَصْحَابُكَ؟ » قَالَ إِنِّي أُرِيدُ الْأَجْرَ مِنَ اللَّهِ فَجَعَلَ يَنْفُضُ التُّرَابَ عَنْهُ وَيَقُولُ «وَيْحُ عَمَّارٍ تَقْتُلُهُ الْفِئَةُ الْبَاغِيَةُ يَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ وَيَدْعُونَهُ إِلَى النَّارِ» فَقَالَ عَمَّارٌ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الْفِتَنِ
