He is giving to (men of) Quraish and leaves us, in spite of the fact that our swords are still dropping blood (of the infidels)" When Messenger of Allah ﷺ was informed of what they had said, he called the Ansar and gathered them in a leather tent and did not call anybody else along, with them. When they gathered, Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to them and said, "What is the statement which, I have been informed, and that which you have said?" The learned ones among them replied," O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! The wise ones amongst us did not say anything, but the youngsters amongst us said, 'May Allah forgive His Apostle; he gives the Quarish and leaves the Ansar, in spite of the fact that our swords are still dribbling (wet) with the blood of the infidels.' " Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, I give to such people as are still close to the period of Infidelity (i.e. they have recently embraced Islam and Faith is still weak in their hearts). Won't you be pleased to see people go with fortune, while you return with Messenger of Allah ﷺ to your houses? By Allah, what you will return with, is better than what they are returning with." The Ansar replied, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, we are satisfied' Then the Prophet ﷺ said to them." You will find after me, others being preferred to you. Then be patient till you meet Allah and meet His Apostle at Al-Kauthar (i.e. a fount in Paradise)." (Anas added:) But we did not remain patient.  

أَنَّ نَاسًا مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ قَالُوا لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِينَ أَفَاءَ اللَّهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ ﷺ مِنْ أَمْوَالِ هَوَازِنَ مَا أَفَاءَ فَطَفِقَ يُعْطِي رِجَالاً مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ الْمِائَةَ مِنَ الإِبِلِ فَقَالُوا يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُعْطِي قُرَيْشًا وَيَدَعُنَا وَسُيُوفُنَا تَقْطُرُ مِنْ دِمَائِهِمْ قَالَ أَنَسٌ فَحُدِّثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ بِمَقَالَتِهِمْ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى الأَنْصَارِ فَجَمَعَهُمْ فِي قُبَّةٍ مِنْ أَدَمٍ وَلَمْ يَدْعُ مَعَهُمْ أَحَدًا غَيْرَهُمْ فَلَمَّا اجْتَمَعُوا جَاءَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مَا كَانَ حَدِيثٌ بَلَغَنِي عَنْكُمْ قَالَ لَهُ فُقَهَاؤُهُمْ أَمَّا ذَوُو آرَائِنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَلَمْ يَقُولُوا شَيْئًا وَأَمَّا أُنَاسٌ مِنَّا حَدِيثَةٌ أَسْنَانُهُمْ فَقَالُوا يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُعْطِي قُرَيْشًا وَيَتْرُكُ الأَنْصَارَ وَسُيُوفُنَا تَقْطُرُ مِنْ دِمَائِهِمْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنِّي أُعْطِي رِجَالاً حَدِيثٌ عَهْدُهُمْ بِكُفْرٍ أَمَا تَرْضَوْنَ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ النَّاسُ بِالأَمْوَالِ وَتَرْجِعُونَ إِلَى رِحَالِكُمْ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا تَنْقَلِبُونَ بِهِ خَيْرٌ مِمَّا يَنْقَلِبُونَ بِهِ قَالُوا بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَدْ رَضِينَا فَقَالَ لَهُمْ إِنَّكُمْ سَتَرَوْنَ بَعْدِي أُثْرَةً شَدِيدَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوُا اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ ﷺ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ قَالَ أَنَسٌ فَلَمْ نَصْبِرْ  

When Allah gave Messenger of Allah ﷺ what he gave of the properties of the Hawazin tribe as a war booty, the Prophet ﷺ started giving some men 100 camels each. The Ansar (then) said, "May Allah forgive Messenger of Allah ﷺs as he gives to Quraish and leaves us although our swords are still dribbling with the blood of Quraish." Allah Apostle was informed of their statement, so he sent for the Ansar and gathered them in a leather tent, and did not call anybody else along with them. When they al I gathered, the Prophet ﷺ got up and said, "What is this talk being informed to me about you?" The learned men amongst the Ansar said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Our chiefs did not say anything, but some people amongst us who are younger in age said. 'May Allah forgive Messenger of Allah ﷺ as he gives (of the booty) to Quraish and leaves us though our swords are still dribbling with their blood." The Prophet ﷺ said, "I give to these men who have newly deserted heathenism (and embraced Islam) so as to attract their hearts. Won't you be happy that the people take the wealth while you take the Prophet ﷺ with you to your homes? By Allah, what you are taking is better than whatever they are taking." They (i.e. the Ansar) said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! We are satisfied." The Prophet ﷺ then said to them. "You will find others favored over you greatly, so be patient till you meet Allah and His Apostle and I will be at the Tank then." Anas added: But they did not remain patient.

May Allah grant pardon to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that he bestowed (these camels) upon the people of Quraish, and he ignored us, whereas our swords are still dripping blood. Anas b. Malik said: Their statement was conveyed to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he sent (someone) to the Ansar and gathered them under a tent of leather. When they had assembled, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to them and said: What is this news that has reached me from you? The wise people of the Ansar said: Messenger of Allah, so far as the sagacious amongst us are concerned they have said nothing, but we have amongst us persons of immature age; they said: May Allah grant pardon to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that he gave to the Quraish and ignored us (despite the fact) that our swords are besmeared with their blood. Upon this the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: I give (at times material gifts) to persons who were quite recently in the state of unbelief, so that I may incline them to truth Don't you feel delighted that people should go with riches, and you should go back to your places with the Messenger of Allah? By Allah, that with which you would return is better than that with which they would return. They said: Yes, Messenger of Allah, we are pleased. The Prophet said too: You would find marked preference (in conferring of the material gifts) in future, so you should show patience till you meet Allah and His Messenger and I would he at the Haud Kauthar. They said: We would show patience.

[Machine] Some of the Ansar said on the day of Hunayn, when Allah bestowed upon His Messenger the spoils of war, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would give one hundred camels to every man of Quraysh. They said, "May Allah forgive the Messenger of Allah; he gives Quraysh and leaves us, and our swords are dripping with their blood." Anas said, "When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was informed about their statements, he sent for the Ansar and gathered them in a dome made of adobe, and no one else was with them. When they had gathered, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to them and said, "What is the news that has reached me about you?" The Ansar said: "As for those who are of our opinion, they did not say anything, but as for the newcomers among us, they said such and such in response to what they had said." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Indeed, I give to men who have newly entered into a pledge of disbelief, which I hope they will embrace or ask me for. Do you not want the people to go away with the wealth and you return to your own possessions with the Messenger of Allah?" They said, "Indeed, O Messenger of Allah, we are satisfied." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, you will find severe difficulty after me, so be patient until you meet Allah and His Messenger, for I will meet you at the Pond." Anas said, "So we were patient."

The Ansar replied, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, we are satisfied' Then the Prophet ﷺ said to them." You will find after me, others being preferred to you. Then be patient till you meet Allah and meet His Apostle at Al-Kauthar (i.e. a fount in Paradise)." (Anas added:) But we did not remain patient. (Using translation from Bukhārī 3147)   

أَنَّ نَاسًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فِيمَا أَفَاءَ اللهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ مِنْ أَمْوَالِ هَوَازِنَ فَطَفِقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُعْطِي رَجُلًا مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ الْمِائَةَ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ فَقَالُوا يَغْفِرُ اللهُ لِرَسُولِهِ ﷺ يُعْطِي قُرَيْشًا وَيَتْرُكُنَا وَسُيُوفُنَا تَقْطُرُ مِنْ دِمَائِهِمْ قَالَ فَحُدِّثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِمَقَالَتِهِمْ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى الْأَنْصَارِ فَجَمَعَهُمْ فِي قُبَّةٍ مِنْ أَدَمٍ لَمْ يَدْعُ مَعَهُمْ غَيْرَهُمْ فَلَمَّا جَاءَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَا حَدِيثٌ بَلَغَنِي عَنْكُمْ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ فُقَهَاؤُهُمْ أَمَّا ذَوُو رَأْيِنَا فَلَمْ يَقُولُوا شَيْئًا وَأَمَّا نَاسٌ مِنَّا حَدِيثَةٌ أَسْنَانُهُمْ فَقَالُوا يَغْفِرُ اللهُ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ يُعْطِي قُرَيْشًا وَيَتْرُكُنَا وَسُيُوفُنَا تَقْطُرُ مِنْ دِمَائِهِمْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَإِنِّي أُعْطِي رِجَالًا حَدِيثِي عَهْدٍ بِكُفْرٍ؛ أَتَأَلَّفُهُمْ أَلَا تَرْضَوْنَ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ النَّاسُ بِالْأَمْوَالِ وَتَرْجِعُونَ إِلَى رِحَالِكُمْ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ لَمَا تَنْقَلِبُونَ بِهِ خَيْرٌ مِمَّا يَنْقَلِبُونَ بِهِ؟ قَالُوا بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ رَضِينَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّكُمْ سَتَجِدُونَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً شَدِيدَةً؛ فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلَقَوَا اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ قَالَ أَنَسٌ إِذًا نَصْبِرُ
