Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ أَخْبَرَنَا أَيُّوبُ عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ هِلَالٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ خَطَبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَالَ أَخَذَ الرَّايَةَ زَيْدٌ فَأُصِيبَ ثُمَّ أَخَذَهَا جَعْفَرٌ فَأُصِيبَ ثُمَّ أَخَذَهَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ فَأُصِيبَ ثُمَّ أَخَذَهَا خَالِدٌ عَنْ غَيْرِ إِمْرَةٍ فَفَتَحَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ مَا يَسُرُّهُمْ أَوْ قَالَ مَا يَسُرُّنِي أَنَّهُمْ عِنْدَنَا قَالَ وَإِنَّ عَيْنَيْهِ لَتَذْرِفَانِ.
English Translation
Isma'il narrated to us: Ayyub informed us, from Humayd ibn Hilal, from Anas ibn Malik, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, delivered a sermon and said: "Zayd took up 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; then Khalid took it without being appointed, and Allah granted him victory," and he said, "It would not please them" — or he said, "it would not please me — that they be with us," and his eyes were shedding tears.
