[6410] 169 - (2502) It was narrated that Abū Mūsā said: "We heard about the migration of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ when we were in Yemen, so we set out to migrate to him, my two brothers and I. I was the youngest of them; one of them was Abū Burdah and the other was Abū Ruhm, and fifty-odd or fifty-three of my people. We embarked on a ship and our ship took us to the Negus in Abyssinia. We met Ja'far bin
Abi Tâlib and his companions there, and Ja'far said: 'The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ sent us here, and told us to stay here, so stay with us.' We stayed with him, until we came all together. And we met the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ when he conquered Khaibar, and he gave us a share (of the spoils of war) or he gave us some of it. He did not give anything to anyone who had not been present at the conquest of Khaibar, except those who were present with him, and those who had been on our ship along with Ja'far and his companions. He gave them a share too. Some of the people said to us - meaning the people of the ship - 'We migrated before you.'"
