English translation

4099. Narrated Anas رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ went out towards the Khandaq (i.e., trench) and saw the emigrants and the Anṣār digging the trench in the cold morning. They had no slaves to do that (work) for them. When the Prophet ﷺ saw their hardship and hunger, he said, "O Allāh! The real life is the life of the Hereafter, so please forgive Anṣār and the emigrants." They said in reply to him, "We are those who have given the Bai'a (pledge) to Muḥammad ﷺ for to observe Jihād (holy fighting) as long as we live."

4099 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، سَمِعْتُ أَنَسًا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، يَقُولُ: خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى الخَنْدَقِ، فَإِذَا المُهَاجِرُونَ، وَالأَنْصَارُ يَحْفِرُونَ فِي غَدَاةٍ بَارِدَةٍ، فَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمْ عَبِيدٌ يَعْمَلُونَ ذَلِكَ لَهُمْ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى مَا بِهِمْ مِنَ النَّصَبِ وَالجُوعِ، قَالَ: «اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّ العَيْشَ عَيْشُ الآخِرَهْ، فَاغْفِرْ لِلْأَنْصَارِ وَالمُهَاجِرَهْ» فَقَالُوا مُجِيبِينَ لَهُ: نَحْنُ الَّذِينَ بَايَعُوا مُحَمَّدَا ... عَلَى الجِهَادِ مَا بَقِينَا أَبَدَا
