ما بعث رسول الله زيد بن حارثة فى جيش قط إلا أمره
Virtues of Zayd bin Harithah (may Allah be pleased with him): whenever the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Zayd bin Harithah with an army, he made him its commander
Hadith Number: 5019
اخبرنا ابو الطيب محمد بن احمد الزاهد، حدثنا سهل بن عمار العتكي، حدثنا محمد بن عبيد الطنافسي، حدثنا وائل بن داود، سمعت البهي يحدث: ان عائشة كانت تقول: ما بعث رسول الله ﷺ زيد بن حارثة في جيش إلا امره، ولو بقي بعده لاستخلفه (1). صحيح الإسناد، ولم يخرجاه.
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that whenever the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Zayd bin Harithah (may Allah be pleased with him) with any army, he always appointed him as its commander, and had he lived on after him (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) would have appointed him as his successor (khalifah).
This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
تخریج الحدیث: «حسنٌ إن صحَّ سماع البهيِّ من عائشة، وهذا إسناد ضعيف من أجل سهل بن عمار العَتَكي، فهو مختلفٌ في عدالته كما قال الحاكم، لكنه متابع، وفي ثبوت سماع البهيّ - واسمه عبد الله - من عائشة خلاف، وقد وقع تصريحه بسماعه منها في حديث رواه عنها، ولهذا جزم البخاريُّ فيما ...» [ترقيم الرساله 5019] [ترقيم الشركة 4984]

Hadith-science notes and terminology
Grading: (1) This hadith is "hasan" if al-Bahi's hearing from 'A'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) is established. The present chain is "da'if" because of Sahl bin 'Ammar al-'Ataki, since there is disagreement about his reliability ('adalah), as al-Hakim said, but he has been corroborated.
Technical note / Hearing (sama'): There is disagreement over whether al-Bahi (whose name is 'Abdullah) heard from 'A'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her). His explicit statement of hearing from her occurs in one hadith, and for this reason al-Bukhari asserted with certainty that he heard from 'A'ishah [as cited by al-Tirmidhi at the end of al-'Ilal al-Kabir]. Muslim also included in his Sahih one hadith (2536) that he narrated from 'A'ishah. However, Imam Ahmad and 'Abd al-Rahman bin Mahdi denied that he heard from her. Al-Daraqutni objected to Muslim in "al-Tatabbu'", and al-Qadi 'Iyad answered him in "Ikmal al-Mu'lim" that the hadith scholars have declared his narration from 'A'ishah and Fatimah bint Qays sound. Ibn Kathir called the chain of this hadith "jayyid" (good) in "al-Bidayah wa al-Nihayah": 6/ 449, and said: "It is very gharib".

(1) حسنٌ إن صحَّ سماع البهيِّ من عائشة، وهذا إسناد ضعيف من أجل سهل بن عمار العَتَكي، فهو مختلفٌ في عدالته كما قال الحاكم، لكنه متابع، وفي ثبوت سماع البهيّ - واسمه عبد الله - من عائشة خلاف، وقد وقع تصريحه بسماعه منها في حديث رواه عنها، ولهذا جزم البخاريُّ فيما نقله عنه الترمذي في آخر "العلل الكبير" بأنه سمع من عائشة، وروى مسلم حديثًا (2536) من روايته عنها، وأنكر أحمد سماعه منها، ونقل عن عبد الرحمن بن مهدي أنه كان يُنكره أيضًا، واعترض الدارقطني في "التتبع" على مسلم إخراج حديث البهيّ عن عائشة، فردَّ عليه القاضي عياض في "إكمال المُعلِم" بقوله: قد صحَّحوا روايته عن عائشة وفاطمة بنت قيس. قلنا: وجوَّد ابن كثير في "البداية والنهاية" 6/ 449 إسنادَ هذا الحديث وقال: وهو غريب جدًّا.
Reference / Source: It is recorded in Musnad Ahmad: 43/ (25898) and (26174), and by al-Nasa'i (8126) through the route of Ahmad bin Sulayman al-Ruhawi; both (Ahmad bin Hanbal and Ahmad bin Sulayman) from Muhammad bin 'Ubayd, with this same chain. Ahmad (26410) also recorded it from Sa'd bin Muhammad al-Warraq > Wa'il bin Dawud.
وأخرجه أحمد 43/ (25898) و (26174)، وكذلك النسائي (8126) عن أحمد بن سليمان الرُّهاوي، كلاهما (أحمد بن حنبل وأحمد بن سُليمان) عن محمد بن عبيد، بهذا الإسناد. وأخرجه أحمد (26410) عن سعد بن محمد الورّاق، عن وائل بن داود، به.
Details of the narration: This narration will come shortly with the author under number (5028) through the route of Masruq > 'A'ishah, but without mentioning "istikhlaf" (the appointment of a successor), and its chain is "sahih".
وسيأتي عند المصنّف لكن دون ذكر الاستخلاف برقم (5028) من طريق مسروق عن عائشة بإسناد صحيح.
