[Machine] "When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed away, Abu Bakr As-Siddiq sent me to the people of Al-Buhaira. Then I witnessed the Battle of Yamama, and then I witnessed the Muslim conquests in Sham (Greater Syria). After that, I witnessed the Battle of Yarmouk, where I was injured in my eye. Then I witnessed the Battle of Qadisiyyah, and I was appointed as a messenger for Sa'd bin Rustom, and I was appointed as a governor for Umar Ibn Al-Khattab in conquests. I conquered Hamazan, and I was in control of Maysarah, the son of Nu'man, on the day of Nahavand. Umar had written that if Nu'man dies, then the prince would be Hudhayfah, and if Hudhayfah dies, then the prince would be Al-Mughirah. I was the first to establish the Diwan of Basrah (administrative office), and I gathered people to distribute wealth. I was appointed as a governor for Kufah for Umar Ibn Al-Khattab. Umar was killed while I was there, and then I was appointed as a governor for Muawiyah. Adh-Dhahabi did not mention this in his summary."
