[Machine] "I went intentionally to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I met Khalid ibn Al-Walid before the conquest of Mecca. He was coming from Mecca. So I said, 'Where are you going, O Abu Sulaiman?' He said, 'By Allah, the one who is called Al-Meessam has been guided, and indeed the man is a Prophet. I intend to go and accept Islam. How long will it go on like this?' He said, 'We arrived in Medina before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and Khalid ibn Al-Walid arrived before us and accepted Islam and gave his pledge (to the Prophet). Then I approached and gave my pledge and left.'"
خَرَجْتُ عَامِدًا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَقِيتُ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ وَذَلِكَ قُبَيْلَ الْفَتْحِ وَهُوَ مُقْبِلٌ مِنْ مَكَّةَ فَقُلْتُ أَيْنَ تُرِيدُ يَا أَبَا سُلَيْمَانَ؟ فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ لَقَدِ اسْتَقَامَ الْمِيسَمُ وَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لِنَبِيٌّ أَذْهَبُ فَأُسْلِمُ فَحَتَّى مَتَى قَالَ «فَقَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَتَقَدَّمَ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ فَأَسْلَمَ وَبَايَعَ ثُمَّ دَنَوْتُ فَبَايَعْتُ وَانْصَرَفْتُ» سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص
