Толық өмірбаяны
Amr ibn Abasa al-Sulami is traditionally counted among the very first Muslims, with some scholars placing him as the fourth person to embrace Islam — after Khadija, Abu Bakr, and Ali ibn Abi Talib. He encountered the Prophet in Mecca in the earliest days of the prophethood, before any established Muslim community existed, and immediately recognised the truth of the message. He was unable to remain in Mecca due to pressure and returned to his tribe until conditions improved.
After the Hijra and the establishment of the Muslim state in Medina, he emigrated and joined the community. He is the narrator of a celebrated long hadith in which he asked the Prophet about the best times for prayer, and the Prophet described the pre-dawn period as the time when Allah is closest to His servants. This hadith is among the most treasured in Islamic spirituality. He lived to an advanced age and passed away during the caliphate of Muawiya.
