حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ ثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ عَنْ رَاشِدٍ مَوْلَى حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَوْسٍ حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ الْعَاصِ مِنْ فِيهِ قَالَ
خَرَجْتُ عَامِدًا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ لِأُسْلِمَ فَلَقِيتُ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ وَذَلِكَ قَبْلَ الْفَتْحِ وَهُوَ مُقْبِلٌ مِنْ مَكَّةَ فَقُلْتُ «أَيْنَ تُرِيدُ يَا أَبَا سُلَيْمَانَ؟» فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ لَقَدِ اسْتَقَامَ الْمِيسَمُ وَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَنَبِيٌّ أَذْهَبُ وَاللَّهِ أُسْلِمُ فَحَتَّى مَتَى فَقُلْتُ «وَأَنَا وَاللَّهِ مَا جِئْتُ إِلَّا لِأُسْلِمَ فَقَدِمْنَا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَتَقَدَّمَ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ فَأَسْلَمَ وَبَايَعَ ثُمَّ دَنَوْتُ فَبَايَعْتُهُ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفْتُ»

✧ "I went intentionally to meet the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to convert (to Islam). I encountered Khalid ibn Al-Walid before the conquest (of Mecca), while he was approaching from Mecca. I asked, 'Where are you heading, O Abu Sulayman?' He replied, 'By Allah, the landmark (Meesam) has been established, and indeed, the man is a Prophet. I will go and, by Allah, I will convert.' I asked him, 'Until when?' He said, 'And I, by Allah, have come only to convert.' So we proceeded to meet the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Khalid ibn Al-Walid took the lead and accepted Islam and pledged his allegiance. Then I approached and pledged allegiance to him, and then I left."
