[Machine] Narrated that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ conquered Al-Bahrain and wanted to write a letter to them. They said, "No, not until you give our brothers from Quraysh something like it." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, you will see after me difficulty, so be patient until you meet me."

bukhari:2377al-Layth > Yaḥyá b. Saʿīd > Anas

The Prophet ﷺ called the Ansar so as to grant them a portion of (the land of) Bahrain. They said, "O Messenger of Allah ! If you grant this to is, write a similar document on our Quraish (emigrant) brothers." But the Prophet ﷺ did not have enough grants and he said: "After me you will see the people giving preference (to others), so be patient till you meet me."

Once the Prophet ﷺ called the Ansar in order to grant them part of the land of Bahrain. On that they said, "No! By Allah, we will not accept it unless you grant a similar thing to our Quarries brothers as well." He said, "That will be their's if Allah wishes." But when the Ansar persisted in their request, he said, "After me you will see others given preference over you in this respect (in which case) you should be patient till you meet me at the Tank (of Al-Kauthar).

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ wanted to write a book for the people from the Ansar to the people of Bahrain. They said that he should also write a similar book for our brothers from the Muhajirin (migrants). So he called them and they refused. He said, "Verily, you will see after me calamities, so be patient until you meet me."

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَكْتُبَ كِتَابًا لِنَاسٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ إِلَى الْبَحْرَيْنِ فَقَالُوا لَا إِلَّا أَنْ تَكْتُبَ لِإِخْوَانِنَا مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ مِثْلَهَا فَدَعَاهُمْ فَأَبَوْا قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّكُمْ سَتَرَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي

[Machine] He heard from Anas that the Prophet ﷺ called the Ansar to split the two seas for them, but they said no until the same is done for our brothers from the Muhajireen like us. So he said, "Indeed, you will meet me afterwards, so be patient until you meet me."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ once visited the Anṣār tribe of Bahrain or a group among them. They said, "Do not cut off our brothers among the Muhājirīn (those who migrated from Mecca to Medina) like you cut off us." He said, "Indeed, you will meet me after my departure, so be patient until you meet me."
