4330. Narrated 'Abdullāh bin Zaid bin 'Āšim: When Allāh gave to His Messenger ﷺ the war booty on the day (of the battle) of Hunain, he distributed that booty amongst the people to attract the hearts of those who have been inclined towards Islām, but did not give anything to the Anṣār. So they seemed to have felt angry and sad as they did not get the same as other people had got. The Prophet ﷺ then delivered a Khutba (religious talk) before them, saying, "O, the assembly of Anṣār! Didn't I find you astray, and then Allāh guided you on the Right Path through me? You were divided into groups, and Allāh brought you together through me; you were poor and Allāh made you rich through me." Whatever the Prophet ﷺ said, they (i.e., the Anṣār) said, "Allāh and His Messenger ﷺ have more favours (on us)." The Prophet ﷺ said, "What stops you from answering the Messenger of Allāh?" But whatever he said to them, they replied, "Allāh and His Messenger have more favours (on us)." The Prophet ﷺ then said, "If you wish you could say: 'You came to us in such and such state (at Al-Madīna).' Wouldn't you be happy to see the people go away with sheep and camels while you go with the Prophet ﷺ to your homes? But for the emigration, I would have been one of the Anṣār, and if the people took their way through a valley or a mountain path, I would select the valley or the mountain path of the Anṣār. The Anṣār are Shi'ār (i.e., those clothes which are in direct contact with the body and worn inside the other garments), and the people are Dithār (i.e., those clothes which are not in direct contact with the body and are worn over other garments). No doubt, you will see other people favoured over you, so you should be patient till you meet me at Al-Haud (Tank Al-Kauthar)."
