Standard of Faith & Honour Granted to Him

Hazrat Aisha (ra) said regarding Hazrat Ammar (ra) that he was filled with faith from head to toe.

(Fazail-e-Sahaba, Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal, p. 520, Fazail Syedna Ammar bin Yassir, Book Corner Printers Publishers, 2016)

Hazrat Khabbab (ra) came to Hazrat Umar (ra). Hazrat Umar (ra) said to him, “Come closer! Nobody is more worthy of being in this gathering than you, except Ammar.” Then Hazrat Khabbab (ra) began showing the marks of the injuries on his back, which were inflicted by the idolaters.

(Sunan Ibn Maaja, Kitaab ul Sunnah, Fazl Khubbab, Hadith 153)

Hazrat Umar (ra) granted him this honour because he had endured many hardships in the early period of Islam and mentioned that Hazrat Ammar (ra) also endured many hardships.
