4333. Narrated Anas رضي الله عنه: When it was the day of (the battle of) Hunain, the Prophet ﷺ confronted the tribe of Hawāzin while there were ten thousand (men) besides the Tulaqā' (i.e., those who had embraced Islām on the day of the Conquest of Makkah) with the Prophet ﷺ. When they (i.e., Muslims) fled, the Prophet ﷺ said, "O the group of Anṣār!" They replied, "Labbaik, O Allāh's Messenger, and Sa'daik! We are under your command." Then the Prophet ﷺ got down (from his mule) and said, "I am Allāh's slave and His Messenger." Then Al-Mushrikūn (polytheists, pagans, idolaters, and disbelievers in the Oneness of Allāh and in His Messenger Muḥammad ﷺ) were defeated. The Prophet ﷺ distributed the war booty amongst the Tulaqā' and Muhājirūn (i.e., emigrants) and did not give anything to the Anṣār. So the Anṣār spoke (i.e., were dissatisfied), and he called them and made them enter a leather tent and said, "Won't you be pleased that the people take the sheep and camels, and you take Allāh's Messenger ﷺ along with you?" The Prophet ﷺ added, "If the people took their way through a valley and the Anṣār took their way through a mountain path, then I would take the mountain path of the Anṣār".

4333 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَزْهَرُ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ، أَنْبَأَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ حُنَيْنٍ، التَقَى هَوَازِنُ وَمَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَشَرَةُ آلاَفٍ، وَالطُّلَقَاءُ، فَأَدْبَرُوا، قَالَ: «يَا مَعْشَرَ الأَنْصَارِ». قَالُوا: لَبَّيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَسَعْدَيْكَ لَبَّيْكَ نَحْنُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ، فَنَزَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: «أَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَرَسُولُهُ». فَانْهَزَمَ المُشْرِكُونَ، فَأَعْطَى الطُّلَقَاءَ وَالمُهَاجِرِينَ وَلَمْ يُعْطِ الأَنْصَارَ شَيْئًا، فَقَالُوا، فَدَعَاهُمْ فَأَدْخَلَهُمْ فِي قُبَّةٍ، فَقَالَ: «أَمَا تَرْضَوْنَ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ النَّاسُ بِالشَّاةِ وَالبَعِيرِ، وَتَذْهَبُونَ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ» فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَوْ سَلَكَ النَّاسُ وَادِيًا، وَسَلَكَتِ الأَنْصَارُ شِعْبًا، لاَخْتَرْتُ شِعْبَ الأَنْصَارِ»
