حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ عَنْ قَيْسٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ لَمَّا قَدِمْتُ عَلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قُلْتُ فِي الطَّرِيقِ يَا لَيْلَةً مِنْ طُولِهَا وَعَنَائِهَا عَلَی أَنَّهَا مِنْ دَارَةِ الْکُفْرِ نَجَّتِ قَالَ وَأَبَقَ مِنِّي غُلَامٌ لِي فِي الطَّرِيقِ قَالَ فَلَمَّا قَدِمْتُ عَلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَايَعْتُهُ فَبَيْنَا أَنَا عِنْدَهُ إِذْ طَلَعَ الْغُلَامُ فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ هَذَا غُلَامُکَ فَقُلْتُ هُوَ حُرٌّ لِوَجْهِ اللَّهِ فَأَعْتَقْتُهُ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْد اللَّهِ لَمْ يَقُلْ أَبُو کُرَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِي أُسَامَةَ حُرٌّ

صحیح بخاری · Hadith 2531

Narrated Abu Huraira: On my way to the Prophet 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 and gave the pledge of allegiance for embracing Islam, the slave showed up while I was still with the Prophet who remarked, "O Abu Huraira! Here is your slave!" I said, "I manumit him for Allah's Sake," and so I freed him.
