4393. Narrated Abū Hurairah رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: When I came to the Prophet ﷺ, I said on my way, "O what a long tedious tiresome night; nevertheless, it has rescued me from the land of Kufr (disbelief)." A slave of mine ran away on the way. When I reached the Prophet ﷺ I gave him the Bai'a (pledge) (for Islām), and while I was sitting with him, suddenly the slave appeared. The Prophet ﷺ said to me, "O Abū Hurairah! Here is your slave." I said, "He (the slave) is (free) for Allāh's sake," and manumitted him.

4393 - حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ العَلاَءِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، عَنْ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: لَمَّا قَدِمْتُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قُلْتُ فِي الطَّرِيقِ: [البحر الطويل] يَا لَيْلَةً مِنْ طُولِهَا وَعَنَائِهَا ... عَلَى أَنَّهَا مِنْ دَارَةِ الكُفْرِ نَجَّتِ وَأَبَقَ غُلاَمٌ لِي فِي الطَّرِيقِ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمْتُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَبَايَعْتُهُ، فَبَيْنَا أَنَا عِنْدَهُ إِذْ طَلَعَ الغُلاَمُ، فَقَالَ لِي النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ هَذَا غُلاَمُكَ» فَقُلْتُ: هُوَ لِوَجْهِ اللَّهِ، فَأَعْتَقْتُهُ
