Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي يُونُسَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ مَا رَأَيْتُ شَيْئًا أَحْسَنَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَأَنَّ الشَّمْسَ تَجْرِي فِي وَجْهِهِ وَمَا رَأَيْتُ أَحَدًا أَسْرَعَ فِي مَشْيِهِ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَأَنَّمَا الأَرْضُ تُطْوَى لَهُ إِنَّا لَنُجْهِدُ أَنْفُسَنَا وَإِنَّهُ لَغَيْرُ مُكْتَرِثٍ ‏ .‏ قَالَ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ ‏.‏

Translation

Qutaybah narrated to us: Ibn Lahi‘ah narrated to us, from Abu Yunus, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: I have never seen anything more beautiful than the Messenger of Allah ﷺ; it was as if the sun flowed across his face. And I have never seen anyone walk more swiftly than the Messenger of Allah ﷺ; it was as if the earth were folded for him. We would exhaust ourselves, while he remained untroubled. He said: This is a gharib hadith.
