Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ، عَنِ ابْنِ لَهِيعَةَ، أَخْبَرَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ لَهِيعَةَ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْوَرْدِ، صَاحِبَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ إِيَّاكُمْ وَالسَّرِيَّةَ الَّتِي إِنْ لَقِيَتْ فَرَّتْ وَإِنْ غَنِمَتْ غَلَّتْ ‏.‏

Abū Bakr ibn Abī Shaybah narrated to us: Zayd ibn al-Ḥubāb narrated to us, from Ibn Lahīʿah: Yazīd ibn Abī Ḥabīb informed me, from Lahīʿah ibn ʿUqbah, who said: I heard Abū al-Ward, a companion of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, say: “Beware of a raiding party that flees if it meets the enemy and commits breach of trust if it gains booty.”
