[2441] 135 - (...) It was narrated that Anas bin Mâlik said: “On the day of (battle of) Hunain, Hawâzin, Ghaţafân and others
came with their children and flocks, and on that day the Prophet ﷺ had ten thousand with him, as well as the Tulaqâ'.[1] They fled from him until he was left on his own. On that day he gave two calls, with nothing in between them. He turned to his right and said: 'O Anşâr!' and they said: 'Here we are at your service, O Messenger of Allâh. Be of good cheer, for we are with you.' Then he turned to his left and said: 'O Anşâr!' and they said: 'Here we are at your service, O Messenger of Allâh. Be of good cheer, for we are with you.' He was riding a white mule, then he dismounted and said: 'I am the slave of Allâh and His Messenger.' Then the idolators were defeated and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ acquired a great amount of spoils of war. He divided it among the Muhâjirûn and the Tulaqâ', and he did not give the Anşâr anything.
The Anşâr said: 'At the hour of need we are called, then the spoils are given to others!' News of that reached him (the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ), so he summoned them to a tent and said: 'O Anşâr, what is this that I have heard you are saying?' They remained silent. He said: 'O Anşâr, does it not please you that the people are leaving with
worldly gains, but you are leaving with Muhammad and taking him to your houses? They said: 'Yes, O Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, we are pleased.' He said: 'If the people were to follow a valley and the Anṣār were to follow a mountain pass, I would take the mountain pass of the Anṣār.'"
Hishām (a narrator) said: "I said: 'O Abū Ḥamzah,[1] did you witness that?' He said: 'How could I be elsewhere?'"

١٣٥ - (١٠٥٩) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى وَإِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَرْعَرَةَ (يزيد أحدهما على الآخر الحرف بعد الحرف) قَالَا: حدثنا معاذ ابن مُعَاذٍ. حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ؛ قَالَ:
لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ حُنَيْنٍ أَقْبَلَتْ هَوَازِنُ وغطفان، بِذَرَارِيِّهِمْ وَنَعَمِهِمْ. وَمَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
يَوْمَئِذٍ عَشَرَةُ آلَافٍ. وَمَعَهُ الطُّلَقَاءُ. فَأَدْبَرُوا عَنْهُ. حَتَّى بَقِيَ وَحْدَهُ. قَالَ: فَنَادَى يَوْمَئِذٍ نِدَاءَيْنِ. لَمْ يَخْلِطْ بَيْنَهُمَا شَيْئًا. قَالَ: فَالْتَفَتَ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ فَقَالَ "يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ! " فَقَالُوا: لَبَّيْكَ، يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! أَبْشِرْ نَحْنُ مَعَكَ. قَالَ: ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ فَقَالَ "يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ! " قَالُوا: لَبَّيْكَ، يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! أَبْشِرْ نَحْنُ مَعَكَ. قَالَ: ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ فَقَالَ "يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ! " قَالُوا: لَبَّيْكَ، يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! أَبْشِرْ نَحْنُ مَعَكَ. قَالَ: وَهُوَ عَلَى بَغْلَةٍ بَيْضَاءَ. فَنَزَلَ فَقَالَ: أَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَرَسُولُهُ. فَانْهَزَمَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ. وَأَصَابَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غَنَائِمَ كَثِيرَةً. فَقَسَمَ فِي الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالطُّلَقَاءِ. وَلَمْ يُعْطِ الْأَنْصَارَ شَيْئًا. فَقَالَتْ الْأَنْصَارُ: إِذَا كَانَتِ الشِّدَّةُ فَنَحْنُ نُدْعَى. وَتُعْطَى الْغَنَائِمُ غَيْرَنَا! فَبَلَغَهُ ذَلِكَ. فَجَمَعَهُمْ فِي قُبَّةٍ. فَقَالَ: "يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ! مَا حَدِيثٌ بَلَغَنِي عَنْكُمْ؟ " فَسَكَتُوا. فَقَالَ:
"يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ! أَمَا تَرْضَوْنَ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ النَّاسُ بِالدُّنْيَا وَتَذْهَبُونَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ تَحُوزُونَهُ إِلَى بُيُوتِكُمْ؟ " قَالُوا: بَلَى. يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! رَضِينَا. قَالَ: فَقَالَ:
"لَوْ سَلَكَ النَّاسُ وَادِيًا، وَسَلَكَتْ الْأَنْصَارُ شِعْبًا، لَأَخَذْتُ شِعْبَ الْأَنْصَارِ".
قَالَ هِشَامٌ: فَقُلْتُ: يَا أَبَا حَمْزَةَ! أَنْتَ شَاهِدٌ ذَاكَ؟ قَالَ وَأَيْنَ أَغِيبُ عنه؟.
