حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ أُسَامَةَ أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ عَنْ قَيْسٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ
لَمَّا قَدِمْتُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قُلْتُ فِي الطَّرِيقِ: يَا لَيْلَةً مِنْ طُولِهَا وَعَنَائِهَا عَلَى أَنَّهَا مِنْ دَارَةِ الْكُفْرِ نَجَّتِ قَالَ: وَأَبَقَ مِنِّي غُلَامٌ لِي فِي الطَّرِيقِ. قَالَ: فَلَمَّا قَدِمْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَبَايَعْتُهُ، فَبَيْنَا أَنَا عِنْدَهُ إِذْ طَلَعَ الْغُلَامُ فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، هَذَا غُلَامُكَ، قُلْتُ: هُوَ لِوَجْهِ اللهِ، فَأَعْتَقْتُهُ

On my way to the Prophet ﷺ I was reciting:-- 'What a long tedious tiresome night! Nevertheless, it has saved us From the land of Kufr (disbelief).' I had a slave who ran away from me on the way. When I went to the Prophet ﷺ and gave the pledge of allegiance for embracing Islam, the slave showed up while I was still with the Prophet ﷺ who remarked, "O Abu Huraira! Here is your slave!" I said, "I manumit him for Allah's Sake," and so I freed him. (Using translation from Bukhārī 2531)
