3853. Khabbāb said: “We emigrated with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, seeking the Face of Allāh. So our reward is with Allāh. Among us were those who died
and did not consume any of the rewards (in this life), and among us were those who lived to see its fruits and tend to them. Verily, Muṣab bin ‘Umair died without leaving anything behind but a garment. When they covered his head with it his feet would become exposed, and when they covered his feet with it his head will become exposed. So the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: ‘Cover his head and place Al-Idhkhir over his feet.’” (Saḥīḥ)
[Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Ḥasan Saḥīḥ.

Commentary
After Emigration some of the Companions died before the conquests started and the wealth started pouring in. They were leading a very hard life. They did not take their share from the easy and comfortable life of the later period; therefore, they will be rewarded in the Hereafter. Many of the Companions lived till wealth came in the country through the conquests, and they took a part of reward in this world.
