أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمِ بْنِ نُعَيْمٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ أَبِي أَخْبَرَنَا قَالَ خَبَّرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ شَيْبَانَ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ سُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ رَبَاحٍ عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ «صَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ فَأَمَرَ الْمُنَادِيَ أَنْ يُنَادِيَ الصَّلَاةُ جَامِعَةٌ» فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «ثَابَ خَبَرٌ ثَابَ خَبَرٌ ثَابَ خَبَرٌ أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ عَنْ جَيْشِكُمْ هَذَا الْغَازِي؟ إِنَّهُمُ انْطَلِقُوا حَتَّى لَقُوَا الْعَدُوَّ لَكِنْ زَيْدَ أُصِيبَ شَهِيدًا فَاسْتَغْفِرُوا لَهُ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ اللِّوَاءَ جَعْفَرٌ فَشَدَّ عَلَى الْقَوْمِ فَقُتِلَ شَهِيدًا أَنَا أَشْهَدُ لَهُ بِالشَّهَادَةِ فَاسْتَغْفِرُوا لَهُ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ اللِّوَاءَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ فَأَثْبَتَ قَدَمَيْهِ حَتَّى أُصِيبَ شَهِيدًا فَاسْتَغْفِرُوا لَهُ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ اللِّوَاءَ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ مِنَ الْأُمَرَاءِ فَرَفَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ضَبْعَيْهِ» وَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ هُوَ سَيْفٌ مِنْ سُيُوفِكَ فَانْتَصِرْ بِهِ» فَيَوْمَئِذٍ سُمَيَّ خَالِدٌ سَيْفَ اللهِ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ascended the pulpit and ordered the caller to announce, "Prayer in congregation." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "News has returned, news has returned, news has returned. Shall I not inform you about this army of yours that has gone out? They set out until they met the enemy. Zaid was struck as a martyr, so seek forgiveness for him. Then Ja'far took the banner and charged the people until he was killed as a martyr; I bear witness for him to martyrdom, so seek forgiveness for him. Then 'Abd Allah b. Rawaha took the banner and kept his feet firm until he was struck as a martyr, so seek forgiveness for him. Then Khalid b. al-Walid took the banner, and he was not one of the commanders." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his forearms and said, "O Allah, he is a sword from Your swords, so give victory through him." On that day Khalid was named the Sword of Allah.
