Sahih al-Bukhari 1246
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ هِلاَلٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم " أَخَذَ الرَّايَةَ زَيْدٌ فَأُصِيبَ، ثُمَّ أَخَذَهَا جَعْفَرٌ فَأُصِيبَ، ثُمَّ أَخَذَهَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ فَأُصِيبَ ـ وَإِنَّ عَيْنَىْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَتَذْرِفَانِ ـ ثُمَّ أَخَذَهَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ مِنْ غَيْرِ إِمْرَةٍ فَفُتِحَ لَهُ "
Abu Ma'mar narrated to us; 'Abd al-Warith narrated to us; Ayyub narrated to us, from Humayd ibn Hilal, from Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), who said that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘Zayd took the banner and was struck down. Then Ja'far took it and was struck down. Then 'Abdullah ibn Rawahah took it and was struck down’—and the Messenger of Allah's eyes were shedding tears—‘then Khalid ibn al-Walid took it without an appointment, and victory was granted to him.’
