Giving precedence to Ahmas and praying for them

ahmad:18834Abū Aḥmad Muḥammad b. Abdullāh > Sufyān > Mukhāriq > Ṭāriq

[AI] The delegation of Ahmas and the delegation of Qays came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Begin with the Ahmasis before the Qaysis." He then supplicated for Ahmas and said, "O Allah, bless Ahmas, its horses, and its men," seven times.

أحمد:١٨٨٣٤حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ مُخَارِقٍ عَنْ طَارِقٍ قَالَ

قَدِمَ وَفْدُ أَحْمَسَ وَوَفْدُ قَيْسٍ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: «ابْدَءُوا بِالْأَحْمَسِيِّينَ قَبْلَ الْقَيْسِيِّينَ»، وَدَعَا لِأَحْمَسَ، فَقَالَ: «اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ فِي أَحْمَسَ وَخَيْلِهَا وَرِجَالِهَا» سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ.
