By the torture he and his parents (Summaya and Yasir) encountered by Abu Jahl and the enemies of Islam.
Abu Jahl used to torture the prophets companions. The family of Ammar were tortured the most. His parents died under torture, therefore they were the first martyrs of Islam. Ammar and Bilal were about to face the same fate, but Abu Bakr paid ransom for them..
Whether or not Ammar was included in the Migration to Abyssinia is still a matter of doubt The Sealed Nectar The Second ‘Aqabah Pledge on sunnipath.com
