English translation

3776. Narrated Ghailān bin Jarīr: I asked Anas, "Tell me about the name Al-Anšār. Did you call yourselves by this name or did Allāh call you by it?" He said, "Allāh called us by this name." We used to visit Anas (at Baṣrah) and he used to narrate to us the virtues and deeds of Al-Anšār, and he used to address me or a person from the tribe of Al-Azd and say, "Your tribe did so-and-so on such and such a day."

Arabic text

3776 - حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا مَهْدِيُّ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ، حَدَّثَنَا غَيْلاَنُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَنَسٍ: أَرَأَيْتَ اسْمَ الأَنْصَارِ، كُنْتُمْ تُسَمَّوْنَ بِهِ، أَمْ سَمَّاكُمُ اللَّهُ؟ قَالَ: «بَلْ سَمَّانَا اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ»، كُنَّا نَدْخُلُ عَلَى أَنَسٍ، فَيُحَدِّثُنَا بِمَنَاقِبِ الأَنْصَارِ، وَمَشَاهِدِهِمْ، وَيُقْبِلُ عَلَيَّ، أَوْ عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنَ الأَزْدِ، فَيَقُولُ: «فَعَلَ قَوْمُكَ يَوْمَ كَذَا وَكَذَا كَذَا وَكَذَا»
