[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stayed in Makkah for ten years, following the people in their homes in 'Ukaz and Majinah, and during the seasons in Mina. He would say, "Who will shelter and support me? Who will assist me until I deliver the message of my Lord, and he will be rewarded with Paradise?" So much so that a man would come from Yemen or Egypt, and his people would warn him, saying, "Beware of the young boy from Quraysh who will deceive you." But he would walk among them and they would point at him with their fingers. Until Allah sent someone from Yathrib (Medina) and we offered him shelter and believed in him. The man would return to his people, and they would embrace Islam because of him, to the point that there was not a house in Al-Ansar (the supporters) except there were some Muslims living in it. Then, they all came together and said, "Until when shall we leave the Messenger of Allah ﷺ being expelled in the mountains of Makkah and living in fear?" Seventy men of us left until we reached him in the season. We made an appointment with the tribes of Al-'Aqabah, and met him there, a group of men and a group of women. We said, "O Messenger of Allah! Why don't we give you our pledge?" He replied, "Give me your pledge based on hearing and obeying, in ease and hardship, in wealth and poverty, and to enjoin good and forbid evil. And that you will say in Allah's cause, fear no blame from anyone, and to help me rather than hinder me when I come to you. If you fulfill this, then it will be better for you before Allah." We said, "O Messenger of Allah! Rain on us your guidance." We swear by Allah, we will never abandon this pledge nor take it away. So we gave him our pledge, and he grasped the hand of As'ad bin Zurarah, who was one of the youngest among us, and said, "O people of Yathrib! We have not aimed against and attacked the backs of camels unless we knew that he is the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . And indeed his leaving today means the tribal fragmentation of the entire Arabs and the killing of your best people. And the swords will bite you, whether you are a people who can endure that or a people who fear from yourselves a decline, clarify it, and it will be more excuse for you before Allah." We said, "Remove from us, O As'ad!" By Allah! We will never abandon this pledge nor seize it away. So we gave him our pledge, and he made a condition and gave us Paradise in return.

[Machine] From his father Rifaa'ah ibn Rafee', who witnessed the Battle of Badr with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ : He (the Prophet) and his cousin Mu'adh ibn 'Afra'ah went out until they reached Makkah. When they descended from Thaniyyah, they saw a man under a tree. The Prophet said, "Let us approach this man, so that we may entrust him with our belongings and make Tawaf around the Kaaba." We greeted him with the pre-Islamic form of greeting and he responded to us with the Islamic greeting. We had heard of the Prophet ﷺ , so we denied it and asked him, "Who are you?" He said, "Come down." We descended and said, "Where is the man who claims and says what he says?" He said, "I am him." So I said, "Present yourself to me." He presented Islam to us and said, "Who created the heavens, the earth, and the mountains?" We said, "Allah created them." He said, "Then who created you?" We said, "Allah created us." He said, "Then who created these idols that you worship?" We said, "We made them ourselves." He said, "The Creator is more deserving of worship than the created. You are more deserving of being worshiped, as you made them, but Allah is more deserving of being worshiped than something you made." I invite you to worship Allah alone, testify that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah, and I am the Messenger of Allah. I also invite you to maintain kinship ties and refrain from oppression and transgression." We said, "By Allah, if what you are calling us to is false, then it would be among the noblest of matters and the best of characters." So we entrusted him with our belongings until we could go to the Kaaba. Mu'adh ibn 'Afra'ah sat with him and said, "I went to the Kaaba, performed Tawaf, and came out with seven cups. I gave him one of them and said, 'O Allah, if what Muhammad is calling to is true, then remove his cup seven times.'" He struck it seven times and each time, it emitted a sound. So I shouted, 'I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah, and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.' People gathered around me saying, 'This man is insane, he struck the cup seven times and it still made a sound.' I said, 'No, by Allah, he is a believer.' Then I went up to a high place in Makkah, and when Mu'adh saw me, he said, 'Indeed, Rifaa'ah has come with a face that nothing has ever harmed before.' So I came to him, believed in him, and Allah's Messenger ﷺ taught us Surah Yusuf. We recited, "In the name of your Lord who created" until we reached the verse, "We will return to our family." When we were in 'Aqiq, Mu'adh said, 'I have never spent a night away from my family before, so let me stay here until morning.' So I spent the night with him and I had never done what I did before. Rifaa'ah would always present himself to his people after returning from a journey.

[Machine] The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was not supported in a place where he was supported in the Battle of Uhud and this was denied to him. Ibn Abbas said, "Between me and those who deny the Book of Allah, Allah says, 'And Allah has already fulfilled His promise to you when you were killing them with His permission.'" Ibn Abbas said, "The word 'until' in the verse means 'until he forgave you'," and this refers to the archers. This is because the Prophet ﷺ had stationed them at their position and he said, 'Protect our backs. If you see us being killed, do not come to our aid, and if you see us being victorious and gaining spoils, do not share with us.' So when Allah granted victory to the Prophet ﷺ and allowed him to attack the disbelievers, the archers left their positions and entered the battlefield to collect spoils, and the rows of the Prophet's companions became scattered. They were in this state when the horses from that location attacked the Prophet's ﷺ companions. They began striking one another, and many Muslims were killed. From the beginning of the day until the time when the standard-bearer of the disbelievers was killed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his companions faced seven or nine of the enemy's division. The Muslims launched an attack against the horses, but they were not successful. The people said that the cave was beneath them, and the Shaytan shouted, 'Muhammad has been killed, so do not doubt it.' He said, 'And we do not doubt that he has indeed been killed,' until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ emerged between the two mountains and we recognized him by the way he walked. He said, 'So we rejoiced as if we had not been afflicted with what we had been afflicted with.' He said, 'Then he came to us while saying, 'The anger of Allah has intensified over a people who shed the blood of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' And he said again, 'O Allah, they cannot defeat us until they come to us.' So he stayed for an hour, and then Abu Sufyan shouted from beneath the mountain, 'Declare your superiority, O Hubal! Where is the son of Abu Kabsha? Where is the son of Abu Quhafa? Where is the son of Al-Khattab?' Umar said, 'O Messenger of Allah, shall I answer him?' He said, 'Yes.' So when Abu Sufyan said, Declare your superiority, O Hubal!' Umar said, 'Allah is the Most High and the Most Honorable.' Abu Sufyan said, 'O son of Al-Khattab, you have obtained some good fortune, but today you have come face to face with its like.' Umar said, 'This is the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, this is Abu Bakr, and this is Umar.' Abu Sufyan said, 'There are days that alternate with one another, and this is a battle where lives are lost.' Umar said, 'Killing us does not compare to being killed in Paradise.' Abu Sufyan said, 'You believe that?' Umar said, 'Indeed, if that is what you think, then we have lost and been defeated.' Then Abu Sufyan said, 'You will find in our killing you similar to our being killed.' And this was not according to our opinion. Then he was met by Hamiyah, the chief of the idolaters, and he said, 'Indeed, what you have said is something we do not deny.'"

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ divided the booty that Allah had bestowed upon him from the spoils of Hunayn among the people of Makkah, from the Quraysh and others. This angered the Ansar, so when the Prophet ﷺ heard about it, he came to them in their homes and said, "Whoever is not from the Ansar, let him leave to his caravan." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ made the declaration of faith and praised Allah, then he said, "O people of the Ansar, I have been informed about your conversation regarding these spoils that I have given to certain people to strengthen their faith and become witnesses for Islam. Allah has instilled Islam in their hearts." Then he said, "O people of the Ansar, has not Allah bestowed upon you His guidance and honored you with nobility? He has given you the best of names, Ansar Allah (the helpers of Allah) and Ansar Rasulullah (the helpers of the Messenger of Allah). If it were not for the migration, I would have been one of the Ansar. If the people take a valley, and you take a valley, would you not be satisfied that the people take the sheep, camels, and cattle, while you take the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?" When the Ansar heard the words of the Prophet ﷺ, they said, "We are satisfied." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Answer me regarding what I have said." The Ansar said, "O Messenger of Allah, when we were in darkness, Allah brought us to light through you. When we were on the brink of the Fire, Allah saved us through you. When we were astray, Allah guided us through you. So we are pleased with Allah as our Lord, Islam as our religion, and Muhammad as our Prophet. Do as you wish, O Messenger of Allah, in the widest scope." The Prophet ﷺ said, "By Allah, if you had responded to me with anything other than what you have said, I would have said you spoke the truth. Did we not shelter you when you were a fugitive? Did we not believe in you when others denied you? Did we not support you when others abandoned you? And did we not accept what no one else accepted? If you had said this, you would have spoken the truth." The Ansar said, "Rather, to Allah and His Messenger belongs the favor and the generosity, on us and on others." Then they wept, and the Prophet ﷺ wept with them, and he was pleased with them, for what he said to them caused them the greatest joy and was more beloved to them than any material wealth.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَسَّمَ الْفَيْءَ الَّذِي أَفَاءَ اللهُ بِحُنَيْنٍ مِنْ غَنَائِمِ هَوَازِنَ فَأَفْشَى الْقَسْمَ فِي أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ وَغَيْرِهِمْ فَغَضِبَ الْأَنْصَارُ فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَتَاهُمْ فِي مَنَازِلِهِمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ «مَنْ كَانَ هَهُنَا لَيْسَ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَلْيَخْرُجْ إِلَى رَحْلِهِ» ثُمَّ تَشَهَّدَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَحَمِدَ اللهَ ﷻ ثُمَّ قَالَ «يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ قَدْ بَلَغَنِي مِنْ حَدِيثِكُمْ فِي هَذِهِ الْمَغَانِمِ الَّتِي آثَرْتُ بِهَا أُنَاسًا أَتَأَلَّفُهُمْ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ لَعَلَّهُمْ أَنْ يَشْهَدُوا بَعْدَ الْيَوْمِ وَقَدْ أَدْخَلَ اللهُ قُلُوبَهُمُ الْإِسْلَامَ» ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَلَمْ يَمُنَّ اللهُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْإِيمَانِ وَخَصَّكُمْ بِالْكَرَامَةِ وَسَمَّاكُمْ بِأَحْسَنِ الْأَسْمَاءِ أَنْصَارَ اللهِ وَأَنْصَارَ رَسُولِهِ؟ وَلَوْلَا الْهِجْرَةُ لَكُنْتُ امْرَأً مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَلَوْ سَلَكَ النَّاسُ وَادِيًا وَسَلَكْتُمْ وَادِيًا لَسَلَكْتُ وَادِيَكُمْ أَفَلَا تَرْضَوْنَ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ النَّاسُ بِهَذِهِ الْغَنَائِمِ الشَّاةِ وَالنِّعَمِ وَالْبَعِيرِ وَتَذْهَبُونَ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ فَلَمَّا سَمِعَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ قَوْلَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالُوا رَضِينَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَجِيبُونِي فِيمَا قُلْتُ؟» فَقَالَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَجَدْتَنَا فِي ظُلْمَةٍ فَأَخْرَجَنَا اللهُ بِكَ إِلَى النُّورِ وَوَجَدْتَنَا عَلَى شَفَا حُفْرَةٍ مِنَ النَّارِ فَأَنْقَذَنَا اللهُ بِكَ وَوَجَدْتَنَا ضُلَّالًا فَهَدَانَا اللهُ بِكَ فَرَضِينَا بِاللهِ رَبًّا وَبِالْإِسْلَامِ دِينًا وَبِمُحَمَّدٍ نَبِيًّا فَاصْنَعْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا شِئْتَ فِي أَوْسَعِ الْحِلِّ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَمَا وَاللهِ لَوْ أَجَبْتُمُونِي بِغَيْرِ هَذَا الْقَوْلِ لَقُلْتُ صَدَقْتُمْ لَوْ قُلْتُمْ أَلَمْ تَأْتِنَا طَرِيدًا فَآوَيْنَاكَ وَمُكَذَّبًا فَصَدَّقْنَاكَ وَمَخْذُولًا فَنَصَرْنَاكَ وَقَبِلْنَا مَا رَدَّ النَّاسُ عَلَيْكَ؟ لَوْ قُلْتُمْ هَذَا لَصَدَقْتُمْ فَقَالَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ بَلْ للَّهِ وَلِرَسُولِهِ الْمَنُّ وَالْفَضْلُ عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَى غَيْرِنَا ثُمَّ بَكَوْا فَكَثُرَ بُكَاؤُهُمْ فَبَكَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَعَهُمْ وَرَضِيَ عَنْهُمْ فَكَانُوا بِالَّذِي قَالَ لَهُمْ أَشَدَّ اغْتِبَاطًا وَأَفْضَلَ عِنْدَهُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ مَالٍ  

[Machine] It is reported that the Ansar went against us and gathered with their families in the Saqifah of Bani Sa'ida. Ali and Zubair also went against us and those who were with them. The Muhajireen gathered with Abu Bakr. So I said to Abu Bakr, "O Abu Bakr, come with us to our brothers from the Ansar." So we departed with the intention of meeting them. When we approached them, we met two righteous men from among them. They mentioned what the people had been saying about them. We told them that we wanted our brothers from the Ansar. They said to us, "It is not upon you to come near them. Deal with your own affairs." So I said, "By Allah, we will approach them." So we went until we reached them in the Saqifah of Bani Sa'ida. There, we saw a man wrapped in a garment between them. I asked, "Who is this?" They said, "This is Sa'ad bin Ubadah." I asked, "What is wrong with him?" They said, "He is sick." When we sat for a while, their speaker praised Allah and then mentioned their status. He said, "We are the Ansar of Allah and the battalion of Islam, and you are the Muhajireen. We are a group from us and there is a remnant from your people who have opposed us, trying to diminish our status and take the authority from us." Then when he remained silent, I intended to speak and I had prepared a speech that I found impressive, which I wanted to present to Abu Bakr. I even faked my speech in front of him, but I avoided mentioning the matter. Then Abu Bakr said, "Speak upon your mission." I hated that he said that and I feared becoming angry and that he would speak before me. Abu Bakr was more patient and respectful. By Allah, he did not leave any word that I found impressive in my false speech except that he said something similar or better than it. Until he remained silent. I said, "You have mentioned nothing but good, and you are deserving of it. We would not have known of this matter if it were not for this noble person from the Quraysh, who are the middle of the Arabs in lineage, wealth, and status. I am pleased with one of these two men, so pledge to either of them as you wish." I extended my hand, and Abu Bakr extended his hand, as did Abu Ubaydah bin Jarrah, who was sitting between us. I would not have disliked anything he said except that it was not in favor of me, apart from this, by Allah, even if he had slapped my neck, I would not have been closer to committing a sin than I am now. I prefer it to commanding a people in whom Abu Bakr is not their leader, O Allah, unless you make my soul understand at the time of my death something that I do not understand now." Then a speaker among the Ansar said, "I am their representative, Al-Muhakkak, and their spokesperson, Al-Murajjab. From us is an Amir and from you is an Amir, O people of Quraish." The noise increased and the voices raised until I feared disagreement. So I said, "Extend your hand, O Abu Bakr." So Abu Bakr extended his hand and I pledged allegiance to him. The Muhajireen pledged allegiance to him, and then the Ansar pledged allegiance to him.

"عَنِ ابن عباس، قال: قال عمرُ بن الخطاب: إنه كان مِنْ خَبرِنَا حيث تَوفَّى اللَّه نبيه ﷺ أن الأنصار خالفونا، واجتمعوا بأسْرِهم في سَقيفةِ بنى ساعدة، وخالف عنا علىٌّ والزبيرُ ومن مَعَهُما، واجتمعَ المهاجرون إلى أَبى بكرٍ، فقلت لأبى بكر: يا أبا بكر: انطلق بنا إلى إخواننا هؤلاء من الأنصار، فانطلقنا نريدهم، فلما دَنَوْنَا منهم لَقِينَا منهم رجلان صالحان فذكرا ما تمالأ عليه القوم، فقال: أين تريدونَ يا معشر المهاجرين؟ فقلنا: نرجو إخواننا من الأنصار، فقالا: لا عليكم أن لا تقربوهم، اقْضُوا أمركم، فقلت: واللَّه لنأتينهم، فانطلقنا حتى أتيناهم في سقيفة بنى ساعدة فإذا رَجُلٌ مُزَمَّل (*) بين ظهرانيهم، فَقُلْتُ: من هذا؟ قالوا: سعدُ بن عبادة، فقلت: ما له؟ قالوا: يَوْعَكُ، فلما جلسنا قليلًا تَشهَّدَ خطيبهم فأثنى على اللَّهِ بِما هُو أَهْلُهُ، ثم قال: أما بعدُ، فنحن أنصارُ اللَّهِ وَكَتِيبَةُ الإسلام، وأنتم مَعْشَرَ المهاجرين رهطٌ مِنَّا وقد دَفَّتْ دَافَّةٌ من قوْمِكم فإذا هم يريدون أن يختزلونا مِنْ أَصْلِنَا وأنْ يَخضُنُونا من هذا الأمر، فلما سكت أردت أن أتكلم، وكلنتُ زَوَرْتُ مقالةً أعجبتنى أريدُ أن أقدمَها بين يدى أَبى بكر، وكنت أدارى منه بعض الحِدَّة، فلما أردت أن أتكلم، قال أبو بكر: على رسلك فكرهت أن أغضبه، فتكلم فكان هوَ أعْلَمَ مِنِّى وَأَوْفَرَ، واللَّه ما ترك من كلمة أعجبتنى في تزويرى إلا قال في بديهته مِثْلَهَا وأفضل منها حتى سكت، قال: ما ذكرتم من خيرٍ فأنتم لَهُ أَهْلٌ، ولَنْ نَعْرفَ هذا الأمر إلا لهذا الحى من قريش، هُمْ أوسطُ العرب نَسَبًا وَدَارًا، وقد رَضِيتُ لكم أحدَ هذين الرجلين، فَبَايعُوا أَيَّهُمَا شِئْتُم، وأخذ بيدى وبيد أَبى عبيدة بن الجراح وهو جالس بيننا، فلم أكره مما قال غيرها، كان واللَّه أُقَدَّمَ فَيَضْرِبَ عُنُقى يقرينى ذَلِكَ مِنْ إِثْمٍ أحبَّ إلىّ من أن أَتَامَّرَ على قوم فيهم أبو بكر، اللهم إلا أن تُسَوِّلَ لِى نفسى عند الموت شَيْئًا لا أَجِدُهُ الآن، فقال قائل الأنصار: أَنَا جُذَيْلُها المُحَكَّكُ، وعُذَيْقُهَا المرجَّبُ، منا أمير ومنكم أمير يا معشرَ قريش، وكثر اللغط، وارتفعت الأصواتُ حتَّى فَرِقْتُ من أن يقع اختلافٌ، فقلت: ابسطْ يدَكَ يا أبا بكرٍ، فبسط يَدَهُ فبايَعْتُهُ وبايعه المهاجرون، ثُمَّ بايَعَهُ الأنصار وَنَزَوْنَا على سعد بن عبادةَ، فقال قائل منهم: قَتَلْتُم سَعْدًا فَقُلْتُ: قَتَلَ اللَّه سَعْدًا أمَا واللَّه ما وجدنا فيما حضرنا أمرا هو أوفَقُ من مبايعة أَبى بكر، خَشِينا إِنْ فارقنا القوم ولَمْ تَكُنْ بَيْعَةٌ أن يُحْدِثُوا بَعْدَنا بيعةً، فإما أن نُتَابعَهم على ما لا نرضى، وإما أن نخالفهمْ فَيكُونَ فِيهِ فسادٌ، فمن بايع أَميرًا من غير مشورة المسلمين فلا بيعةَ لَهُ، ولا بيعةَ لِلَّذِى بَايعَهُ تَغِرَّةَ أن يُقْتَلا".

"عَنْ أبِى سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: لَما قَسَّمَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ السَّبْىَ بالجُعْرَانَة أعْطَى عَطَايَا قُريش وغيرهَا مِن العَرب، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ في الأنْصَارِ مِنْهَا شَىْء، فَكثُرَتْ القَالَةُ وَفَشتْ حَتَّى قَالَ قَائِلُهُم: أمَّا رسُولُ الله ﷺ فَقَد لَقى قَوْمَهُ فَأرْسَلَ إِلَى سَعْدِ بن عُبَادَةَ فَقَالَ: مَا مَقَالَةٌ بلغتنى عَن قَوْمِكَ أكْثَرُوا فِيهَا، فَقَالَ لَه سَعْدٌ: فَقَدْ كَانَ مَا بَلَغَكَ، قَالَ: فَأين أنتَ مِنْ ذَاكَ؟ قَالَ: مَا أنا إلَّا رَجُل مِنْ قومِى فَاشْتَدَ غَضَبُهُ وَقَالَ: اجْمَعْ قَوْمَكَ ولا يَكُنْ مَعَهُم غَيْرهُم، فَجَمعَهم في حظيرة منَ حظائر السَّبْي، فَقَامَ عَلَى بَابِهَا وجَعَل لَا يَتْرُكُ إلا مَنْ كَانَ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ، وَقد تَركَ رِجَالًا مِنَ المهاجرِينَ ورد أناسا، ثُمَّ جَاءَ النَّبي ﷺ يُعْرفُ في وَجْهِه الغَضَبُ، فَقَالَ يَا مَعْشَرَ الأنْصَارِ ألمْ أجِدكُم ضلالا فَهَداكُم الله -تَعَالى-؟ فَجعلوا يَقُولُونَ: نعُوذُ بِالله مِنْ غَضب الله -تَعَالَى- وَمن غَضَبِ رسُولِهِ، قَالَ: ألَا تُجيبُون؟ قَالُوا: الله ورسُولُهُ أمن وأفضَلُ قَالَ: فَلَمَّا سُرِّىَ عَنْهُ قَالَ: وَلو شِئْتُمْ لَقُلتُم فَصَدقْتُم وتَصَدّقْتُم، ألم نَجدك طريدًا فآويناك، ومُكذبا فَصَدَّقْنَاكَ، وعائلًا فآسَيْناكَ، وَمخذُولا فَنَصَرْناكَ، فَجعلُوا يبكون وَيقُولُونَ: الله وَرَسُولُه أمَنُّ وأفْضَلُ، أَوجدتُم مِنْ شَئ مِنْ دُنَيا أعْطَيْتُها قَومًا أتَألفهم الإسْلَامَ، وَوَكَلتُكُم إِلى إسْلَامِكُم، لَو سَلَكَ الناسُ وَادِيًا أَوْ شِعْبًا وَسَلكتُم واديًا أو شِعْبًا لَسَلكْتُ واديكُم أو شِعْبِكُم، أنْتُم شِعار والناسُ دِثَار وَلولَا الهِجْرة لَكنتُ امرءًا مِن الأنْصَارِ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى إِنِي لأرَى مَا تَحْتَ مِنْكَبيْه قَالَ: اللَّهم اغْفِرْ للأنْصَار (ولأبناء الأنصار)، ولأبْنَاءِ أبْنَاءِ الأنْصارِ، أما تَرْضَونَ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ الناسُ بالشَّاة والبعير، وتَذْهَبُون بِرسُولِ الله ﷺ إلى بيوتِكُم، فَبَكَى القومُ حَتَّى أخْضَلُوا لحاهم، وانْصَرفُوا وَهُم يَقُولُون: رَضِينا بالله وبرسُولِه حَظًا وَنصِيبًا"
