مُسْنَدُ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ خَادِمِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ
Three-Narrator Ahadith 206
Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ offered to grant us [the Anṣār] a portion of land in Bahrain, but we said, “We will not accept that unless you grant something similar to our brothers the Muhājirūn.” He said, “You will encounter people who prefer themselves over you after I am gone, so be patient until you meet me [on the Day of Judgement].” They said, “We will be patient.” Reference: Musnad Aḥmad 206
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: دَعَانَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِيَكْتُبَ لَنَا بِالْبَحْرَيْنِ قَطِيعَةً، فَقُلْنَا: لَا، إِلَّا أَنْ تَكْتُبَ لِإِخْوَانِنَا مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ مِثْلَهَا. فَقَالَ: «إِنَّكُمْ سَتَلْقَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً، فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي». قَالُوا: فَإِنَّا نَصْبِرُ.
