حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ: وَحَدَّثَنِي عَاصِمُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ مَحْمُودِ بْنِ لَبِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ: لَمَّا أَعْطَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا أَعْطَى مِنْ تِلْكَ الْعَطَايَا فِي قُرَيْشٍ وَقَبَائِلِ الْعَرَبِ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ (٣) فِي الْأَنْصَارِ مِنْهَا شَيْءٌ وَجَدَ هَذَا الْحَيُّ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ، حَتَّى كَثُرَتْ فِيهِمُ الْقَالَةُ حَتَّى قَالَ قَائِلُهُمْ: لَقِيَ (٤) رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَوْمَهُ، فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ هَذَا الْحَيَّ قَدْ، ، وَجَدُوا عَلَيْكَ فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ لِمَا صَنَعْتَ فِي هَذَا الْفَيْءِ الَّذِي أَصَبْتَ، قَسَمْتَ فِي قَوْمِكَ، وَأَعْطَيْتَ (١) عَطَايَا عِظَامًا فِي قَبَائِلِ الْعَرَبِ، وَلَمْ يَكُ فِي هَذَا الْحَيِّ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ شَيْءٌ، قَالَ: " فَأَيْنَ أَنْتَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ يَا سَعْدُ؟ " قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، مَا أَنَا إِلَّا امْرُؤٌ مِنْ قَوْمِي، وَمَا أَنَا؟ قَالَ: " فَاجْمَعْ لِي قَوْمَكَ فِي هَذِهِ الْحَظِيرَةِ "، قَالَ: فَخَرَجَ سَعْدٌ، فَجَمَعَ الْأَنْصَارَ (٢) فِي تِلْكَ الْحَظِيرَةِ، قَالَ: فَجَاءَ رِجَالٌ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ، فَتَرَكَهُمْ، فَدَخَلُوا وَجَاءَ آخَرُونَ، فَرَدَّهُمْ، فَلَمَّا اجْتَمَعُوا أَتَاهُ سَعْدٌ فَقَالَ: قَدِ اجْتَمَعَ لَكَ هَذَا الْحَيُّ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، قَالَ: فَأَتَاهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ، بِالَّذِي هُوَ لَهُ أَهْلٌ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " يَا مَعْشَرَ (٣) الْأَنْصَارِ مَا قَالَةٌ بَلَغَتْنِي عَنْكُمْ وَجِدَةٌ وَجَدْتُمُوهَا فِي أَنْفُسِكُمْ، أَلَمْ آتِكُمْ ضُلَّالًا فَهَدَاكُمُ اللهُ؟ وَعَالَةً فَأَغْنَاكُمُ اللهُ؟ وَأَعْدَاءً فَأَلَّفَ اللهُ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِكُمْ؟ "، قَالُوا: بَلِ (٤) اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَمَنُّ وَأَفْضَلُ. قَالَ: " أَلَا تُجِيبُونَنِي يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ " قَالُوا: وَبِمَاذَا نُجِيبُكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، وَلِلَّهِ وَلِرَسُولِهِ الْمَنُّ وَالْفَضْلُ. قَالَ: " أَمَا وَاللهِ لَوْ شِئْتُمْ لَقُلْتُمْ فَلَصَدَقْتُمْ وَصُدِّقْتُمْ (٥) ، أَتَيْتَنَا مُكَذَّبًا فَصَدَّقْنَاكَ، وَمَخْذُولًا فَنَصَرْنَاكَ،، ، وَطَرِيدًا فَآوَيْنَاكَ، وَعَائِلًا فَآسَيْنَاكَ (١) ، أَوَجَدْتُمْ فِي أَنْفُسِكُمْ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ فِي لُعَاعَةٍ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا، تَأَلَّفْتُ بِهَا قَوْمًا لِيُسْلِمُوا، وَوَكَلْتُكُمْ (٢) إِلَى إِسْلَامِكُمْ؟ أَفَلَا تَرْضَوْنَ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ النَّاسُ بِالشَّاةِ وَالْبَعِيرِ، وَتَرْجِعُونَ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ فِي رِحَالِكُمْ؟ فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَوْلَا (٣) الْهِجْرَةُ لَكُنْتُ امْرَأً مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، وَلَوْ سَلَكَ النَّاسُ شِعْبًا، وَسَلَكَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ شِعْبًا لَسَلَكْتُ شِعْبَ الْأَنْصَارِ، اللهُمَّ ارْحَمِ الْأَنْصَارَ، وَأَبْنَاءَ الْأَنْصَارِ، وَأَبْنَاءَ أَبْنَاءِ الْأَنْصَارِ " قَالَ: فَبَكَى الْقَوْمُ، حَتَّى أَخْضَلُوا لِحَاهُمْ، وَقَالُوا: رَضِينَا بِرَسُولِ اللهِ قِسْمًا وَحَظًّا، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَتَفَرَّقُوا (٤)، ،

It is narrated from Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (ﷺ) distributed some things among the Quraysh and other Arab tribes, and nothing from it came to the share of the Ansar. This matter came to their minds and such talk became frequent, until one man even said that the Prophet (ﷺ) has joined his own people. Hearing this, Sa’d bin Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him) presented himself in the court of the Prophet and said, "O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)! The Ansar tribe is burdened in their minds regarding you, that what method did you adopt in distributing this war booty: you distributed it among your own people and gave large gifts to the Arab tribes, and the Ansar did not get any share from it." The Prophet (ﷺ) asked him, "Sa’d! On which side are you in this matter?" He replied, "O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)! What is my status? I am only one individual of my people, and what else am I besides that?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Gather your people regarding this matter." So Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) went out and gathered everyone. Some Muhajireen also came, and Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) let them go in, so they went inside. Some other Muhajireen came, but he stopped them. In short, when everyone had gathered, Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) presented himself in the court of the Prophet and said that the Ansar have gathered. The Prophet (ﷺ) came to them, and after praising and glorifying Allah, said, "O group of Ansar! What are these things that are reaching me from your side, that you have some displeasure? Were you not in misguidance, and Allah honored you with guidance? Were you not in financial hardship, and Allah honored you with wealth? Were you not enemies of one another, and Allah placed love for each other in your hearts?" They said, "It is Allah and His Messenger’s favor and kindness." Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Why do you not answer me regarding my words? By Allah! If you wish, you could say—and you would be truthful in it—you came to us when your own people had abandoned you, we gave you refuge; you came to us in a state of fear, we gave you security. Are you not pleased that people take away cows and goats, and you take the Messenger of Allah with you and return to your homes? By Him in Whose hand is the life of Muhammad (ﷺ), if people walk on one path and you walk on another, I will choose your path. O Allah! Have mercy on the Ansar, their sons, and their grandsons." At this, they all began to weep until their beards became wet with their tears, and they said, "We are pleased with the Prophet (ﷺ) regarding our share and the distribution." After this, the Prophet (ﷺ) returned, and the people also dispersed.
