The Prophet ﷺ or Abul-Qasim said, "If the Ansar took their way through a valley or a mountain pass, I would take Ansar's valley. And but for the migration, I would have been one of the Ansar." Abu Huraira used to say, "The Prophet ﷺ is not unjust (by saying so). May my parents be sacrificed for him, for the Ansar sheltered and helped him," or said a similar sentence.

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَوْ قَالَ أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ ﷺ لَوْ أَنَّ الأَنْصَارَ سَلَكُوا وَادِيًا أَوْ شِعْبًا لَسَلَكْتُ فِي وَادِي الأَنْصَارِ وَلَوْلاَ الْهِجْرَةُ لَكُنْتُ امْرَأً مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ مَا ظَلَمَ بِأَبِي وَأُمِّي آوَوْهُ وَنَصَرُوهُ أَوْ كَلِمَةً أُخْرَى
