(3). 3304. Abū Hurairah narrated, that a man from the Anṣār had a guest spend the night with him, but he did not have anything to eat but his meal and the meal for his children, so he said to his wife: 'Put the children to sleep, extinguish the torches, and give me whatever you have with you for the guest.' So this Ayah was revealed: And they give preference over themselves even though they were in need of that."[1] (Sahīh) This Hadīth is Hasan Sahīh.

Arabic text

٣٣٠٤ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ ‌فُضَيْلِ بْنِ غَزْوَانَ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي حَازِمٍ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ «أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ» بَاتَ بِهِ ضَيْفٌ، فَلَمْ يَكُنْ عِنْدَهُ إِلَّا قُوتُهُ وَقُوتُ صِبْيَانِهِ، فَقَالَ لِامْرَأَتِهِ: نَوِّمِي الصِّبْيَةَ وَأَطْفِئِي السِّرَاجَ وَقَرِّبِي لِلضَّيْفِ مَا عِنْدَكِ، فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ: {وَيُؤْثِرُونَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ وَلَوْ كَانَ بِهِمْ خَصَاصَةٌ} هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Commentary

In Verse nine of Sūrat Al-Hashr, the Anṣār's open-mindedness and generosity is admired that they welcomed the emigrants warmly, generously and wholeheartedly. They were never jealous and envious of the help that the emigrants were being offered. They rather gave the emigrants preference over themselves even though they were in the need of those very things. This incident of hospitality is also from among their sacrifice.
