وَعَن عَائِذ بن عَمْرو أَن أَبَا سُفْيَان أَتَى عَلَى سَلْمَانَ وَصُهَيْبٍ وَبِلَالٍ فِي نَفَرٍ فَقَالُوا: مَا أَخَذَتْ سُيُوفُ اللَّهِ مِنْ عُنُقِ عَدُوِّ اللَّهِ مَأْخَذَهَا. فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: أَتَقُولُونَ هَذَا لِشَيْخِ قُرَيْشٍ وَسَيِّدِهِمْ؟ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ لَعَلَّكَ أَغْضَبْتَهُمْ لَئِنْ كُنْتَ أَغْضَبْتَهُمْ لَقَدْ أَغْضَبْتَ رَبَّكَ ” فَأَتَاهُمْ فَقَالَ: يَا إِخْوَتَاهْ أَغْضَبْتُكُمْ قَالُوا: لَا يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ لَكَ يَا أَخِي. رَوَاهُ مُسلم
A’idh b. `Amr told that Abu Sufyan and some men came to Salmon, Suhaib and Bilal who said, “God’s swords have not got their due from the neck of God’s enemy[1].” Abu Bakr then said, “Do you say this to the shaikh and master of Quraish?” He went to the Prophet and told him and he said, “Perhaps you have angered them, Abu Bakr, and if you have done so you have angered your Lord.” He therefore went to them and said, “Have I angered you[2], my brethren?” They replied, “No, God forgive you, dear brother.” 1. i.e., Abu Sufyan. 2. Mirqat , 5:625. prefers this meaning although there is no interrogative particle. Muslim transmitted it.

عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ” اقْتَدُوا بِاللَّذَيْنِ مِنْ بَعْدِي مِنْ أَصْحَابِي: أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَاهْتَدُوا بِهَدْيِ عمّارٍ وَتَمَسَّكُوا بِعَهْدِ ابْنِ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ ” . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ

Ibn Mas’ud reported the Prophet as saying, “When I am gone copy those two of my companions, Abu Bakr and `Umar, follow the guidance of `Ammar, and hold fast to the injunction of Ibn Umm `Abd.” Hudhaifa’s version has “Believe what Ibn Mas’ud tells you” Instead of “Hold fast to the injunction of Ibn Umm `Abd.” Tirmidhi transmitted it.

Khaitham a b. Abu Sabra said: I came to Medina and asked God to grant me a good companion to sit with and He granted me Abu Huraira. I sat with him and told him I had asked God to grant me a good companion to sit with and that he suited me. He asked where I came from and I replied that I belonged to al-kafa and had come desiring and seeking good. He then said, “Do you not have among you Sa’d b. Malik whose prayers are answered, Ibn Mas’ud who looked after God’s messenger’s water for ablution and his sandals, Hudhaifa who was God’s messenger’s confidant, `Ammar to whom God gave protection from the devil at the tongue of His Prophet, and Salman who was a believer in the two Books?” meaning the Injil and the Quran.

Anas told that when God gave His messenger the property of Hawazin which He gave him, and he began to give men from Quraish a hundred camels, some of the Ansar said, “God forgive God’s messenger! He is giving to Quraish and leaving us out, yet our swords are dripping with their blood[*].” When God’s messenger was told what they had said he sent for the Ansar and collected them in a tent of skin, letting no one else accompany them. Then when they had gathered God’s messenger came to them and asked, “What is this I have heard about you?” Their learned ones replied, “Those of us whose opinion is worth considering, messenger of God, have said nothing, but some of our young people have said, `God forgive God’s messenger. He is giving to Quraish and leaving the Ansar out, yet our swords are dripping with their blood’.” God’s messenger said, “I am giving to people who were recently infidels to win them over. Are you not pleased that some people should go off with the property and that you should return to your dwellings with God’s messenger?’” They replied, “Certainly, messenger of God, we are pleased.” *After the defeat of Hawazin at Hunain in S A.H. the spoils were stored at al-Ji’rana and siege was laid to at-Ta’if. After about a fortnight the siege was raised and the army returned to al-Ji’rana where the spoils were distributed. (Bukhari and Muslim)

وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَوْلَا الْهِجْرَةُ لَكُنْتُ امْرَءًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَلَوْ سَلَكَ النَّاسُ وَادِيًا وَسَلَكَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ وَادِيًا أَوْ شِعْبًا لَسَلَكْتُ وَادِيَ الْأَنْصَارِ وشعبها وَالْأَنْصَار شِعَارٌ وَالنَّاسُ دِثَارٌ إِنَّكُمْ سَتَرَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي عَلَى الْحَوْضِ» . رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ

Abu Huraira reported God’s messenger as saying, “Were it not for the Hijra I would be one of the Ansar[*]. If the people were to go in a wadi and the Ansar were to go in a different wadi (or mountain road) I would go in the wadi (or mountain-road) of the Ansar. The Ansar are an inner garment and mankind.an upper garment. After I am gone you will see selfish appropriation [of worldly goods], but show endurance till you meet me at the Pond.” *This most probably indicates that the dignity of having emigrated is the highest, but that the position of being helpers of the emigrants comes next. Bukhari transmitted it.

وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ الْفَتْحِ فَقَالَ: «مَنْ دَخَلَ دَارَ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ فَهُوَ آمِنٌ وَمَنْ أَلْقَى السِّلَاحَ فَهُوَ آمِنٌ» . فَقَالَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ: أَمَّا الرَّجُلُ فَقَدْ أَخَذَتْهُ رَأْفَةٌ بِعَشِيرَتِهِ وَرَغْبَةٌ فِي قَرْيَتِهِ. وَنَزَلَ الْوَحْيُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «قُلْتُمْ أَمَّا الرَّجُلُ فَقَدْ أَخَذَتْهُ رَأْفَةٌ بِعَشِيرَتِهِ وَرَغْبَةٌ فِي قَرْيَتِهِ كَلَّا إِنِّي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَرَسُولُهُ هَاجَرْتُ إِلَى الله وإليكم فالمحيا مَحْيَاكُمْ وَالْمَمَاتُ مَمَاتُكُمْ» قَالُوا: وَاللَّهِ مَا قُلْنَا إِلَّا ضِنًّا بِاللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ. قَالَ: «فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُوله يصدقانكم ويعذرانكم» . رَوَاهُ مُسلم

He said: When we were with God’s messenger on the day of the Conquest he said, “Those who enter Abu Sufyan’s house will be safe, and those who lay aside their arms will be safe.” The Ansar then said “The man has been seized by pity for his tribe and love for his city.” Learning of this by divine inspiration God’s messenger said, “You have said the man has been seized by pity for his tribe and love for his city. It is not so. I am God’s servant and messenger who have emigrated to God and to you and shall live and die among you.” They replied, “We swear by God that we said it only because we were anxious to have God and His messenger to ourselves.” He said, “God and His messenger acknowledge that you are telling the truth and excuse you.” Muslim transmitted it.
