Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 7248

عَنْ سَعْدٍ مَوْلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ ، وَكَانَ يَخْدِمُ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَكَانَ يُعْجِبُهُ خِدْمَتَهُ فَقَالَ : " يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ أَعْتِقْ سَعْدًا " . فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا لَنَا مَاهِنٌ غَيْرُهُ . قَالَ : فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " اعْتِقْ سَعْدًا أَتَتْكَ الرِّجَالُ أَعْتِقْ سَعْدًا أَتَتْكَ الرِّجَالُ " .
قُلْتُ : رَوَى ابْنُ مَاجَهْ طَرَفًا مِنْهُ .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ، وَأَبُو يَعْلَى ، وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him), the slave of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), used to serve the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) liked his service. He said: Abu Bakr! Free Sa'd. He said: O Messenger of Allah! We have no other servant besides him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Free Sa'd! Other men will come to you. Free Sa'd! Other men (that is, slaves) will come to you. (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: Ibn Majah recorded part of this narration.
Ahmad and Abu Ya'la recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.
