[Machine] Amr ibn Abasa al-Sulami said, "I mentioned my entrance to the Prophet ﷺ in Mecca and I asked him, 'Who are you?' He said, 'I am a called prophet.' I asked, 'What is a prophet?' He said, 'Allah the Almighty and Most High has sent me.' I asked, 'With what has He sent you?' He replied, 'He has sent me to maintain family ties, break idols, and establish the oneness of God without associating anything with Him.' I asked, 'Who is with you?' He said, 'A free man and a slave.' He further said, 'On that day, with me were Abu Bakr and Bilal, both of whom believed in me.' And he mentioned the rest of the narration."  

قَالَ عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبَسَةَ السُّلَمِيُّ فَذَكَرَ دُخُولَهُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِمَكَّةَ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ مَا أَنْتَ؟ قَالَ أُدْعَى نَبِيًّا فَقُلْتُ وَمَا نَبِيٌّ؟ قَالَ أَرْسَلَنِي اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى فَقُلْتُ بِأِيِّ شَيْءٍ أَرْسَلَكَ؟ فَقَالَ أَرْسَلَنِي بِصِلَةِ الْأَرْحَامِ وَكَسْرِ الْأَوْثَانِ وَأَنْ يُوَحَّدَ لَا يُشْرَكَ بِهِ شَيْءٌ قُلْتُ لَهُ فَمَنْ مَعَكَ؟ قَالَ حُرٌّ وَعَبْدٌ قَالَ وَمَعَهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَبِلَالٌ مِمَّنْ آمَنَ بِهِ وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ
