Hadith 11709

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ مَا بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ زَيْدَ بْنَ حَارِثَةَ فِي جَيْشٍ قَطُّ إِلَّا أَمَّرَهُ عَلَيْهِ وَلَوْ بَقِيَ بَعْدَهُ اسْتَخْلَفَهُ
It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) that whenever the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Zaid bin Haritha (may Allah be pleased with him) with any army, he appointed him as its commander. If he had lived after the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he would have made him the commander of the armies.

Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The virtue and merit of Sayyiduna Zayd ibn Harithah radi Allahu anhu also become evident; he was the freed slave of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and in fact, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had made him his adopted son.
