مُسْنَدُ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ خَادِمِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ
Three-Narrator Ahadith 114
Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “There will come to you a people more tender of heart than you.” Then the Ashʿarīs arrived, and among them was Abū Mūsā; and when they reached Madīnah they began to chant in rajaz:
“Tomorrow we shall meet the beloved ones, Muḥammad and his company.”

Musnad Aḥmad 114
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ. وَيَزِيدُ: أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدٌ عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَقْدَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَقْوَامٌ أَرَقُّ مِنْكُمْ أَفْئِدَةً». فَقَدِمَ الْأَشْعَرِيُّونَ فِيهِمْ أَبُو مُوسَى، فَجَعَلُوا لَمَّا قَدِمُوا الْمَدِينَةَ يَرْتَجِزُونَ:
غَدًا نَلْقَى الْأَحِبَّهْ مُحَمَّدًا وَحِزْبَهْ.

Chain: Yaḥyā ibn Saʿīd al-Qaṭṭān and Yazīd ibn Hārūn → Ḥumayd al-Ṭawīl → Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) → the Prophet ﷺ. Rijāl: (1) Yaḥyā ibn Saʿīd al-Qaṭṭān al-Tamīmī al-Baṣrī (d. 198 AH): thiqa mutqin ḥāfiẓ, an imam and a model in the criticism of narrators. (2) Yazīd ibn Hārūn al-Sulamī al-Wāsiṭī (d. 206 AH): thiqa mutqin, a devoted worshipper. (3) Ḥumayd ibn Abī Ḥumayd al-Ṭawīl; here he is corroborated by two ḥāfiẓs taking from him. (4) Anas ibn Mālik.
Takhrīj: Musnad Aḥmad, vol. 3, p. 182; Risāla ed. no. 12872, with a parallel in the Musnad through Ibn Abī ʿAdī from Ḥumayd from Anas (no. 12026). Compare al-Bukhārī, Ṣaḥīḥ, no. 4388, and Muslim, Ṣaḥīḥ, no. 52, on the arrival of the people of Yemen, “more tender of heart and softer of feeling.” The Ashʿarīs were the tribe of Abū Mūsā al-Ashʿarī, ʿAbdullāh ibn Qays (d. c. 44 AH), who came to Madīnah from Yemen in the year of Khaybar. The couplet they chanted is in the rajaz meter; al-Aḥibbah (the beloved ones) is written with a final hāʾ of pause, and ḥizbahu here means his party or company, that is, his Companions.
