Amr ibn Al-Aas said:
“When Allah guided me to Islam, I went to the Prophet وسلن عليه هللا صلى and said to him, "O Prophet of Allah! Stretch out your hand so that I might pledge my allegiance to you." The Prophet stretched out his hand to me, but I withdrew my hand. He said "What is the matter, Amr ?" I replied, "I wish to lay down some conditions." The Prophet asked "What conditions do you wish to put forward?" I said "that all my past sins be forgiven." The Prophet said "O Amr! Do you not know that embracing Islam wipes out all past sins, and hijjrah (emigration for Allah‟s cause) wipes off all sins, and similarly pilgrimage removes all past sins."
