حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ : نَزَلْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْزِلًا ، فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ يَمُرُّونَ , فَيَقُولُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَنْ هَذَا يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ؟ " , فَأَقُولُ : فُلَانٌ ، فَيَقُولُ : " نِعْمَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ هَذَا " ، وَيَقُولُ : " مَنْ هَذَا ؟ " , فَأَقُولُ : فُلَانٌ ، فَيَقُولُ : " بِئْسَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ هَذَا " ، حَتَّى مَرَّ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ , فَقَالَ : " مَنْ هَذَا ؟ " , فَقُلْتُ : هَذَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ، فَقَالَ : " نِعْمَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ سَيْفٌ مِنْ سُيُوفِ اللَّهِ " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ ، وَلَا نَعْرِفُ لِزَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ سَمَاعًا مِنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، وَهُوَ عِنْدِي حَدِيثٌ مُرْسَلٌ . قَالَ : وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ .
´Narrated Abu Hurairah:` "We camped with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) at a place, and the people began passing by. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would say: 'Who is this, O Abu Hurairah?' So I would say: 'So-and-so.' So he would say: 'What an excellent slave of Allah this is.' And he would say: 'Who is this?' So I would say: 'So-and-so.' So he would say: 'What a bad slave of Allah this is.' Until Khalid bin Al-Walid passed, so he said: 'Who is this?' So I said: 'This is Khalid bin Al-Walid.' He said: 'What an excellent slave of Allah is Khalid bin Al-Walid, a sword from among the swords of Allah.'"
