The Prophet ﷺ said to the Ansar, "After me you will see others given preference to you; so be patient till you meet me, and your promised place (of meeting) will be the Tank (i.e. Lake of Kauthar).
قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِلأَنْصَارِ إِنَّكُمْ سَتَلْقَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي وَمَوْعِدُكُمُ الْحَوْضُ
A man from the Ansar said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Will you appoint me as you have appointed so-and-so?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "After me, you will see others given preference over you; so be patient till you meet me at the Ḥawḍ (the Basin) ˹on the Day of Resurrection˺.
أَنَّ رَجُلاً مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَلاَ تَسْتَعْمِلُنِي كَمَا اسْتَعْمَلْتَ فُلاَنًا؟ قَالَ: «سَتَلْقَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي عَلَى الْحَوْضِ۔»
A man from among the Ansar came to the Messenger of Allah [SAW] and said: "Will you not appoint me as you appointed so-and-so?" He said: "You will encounter selfishness after I am gone, so be patient until you meet me at the cistern (Al-Hawd)."
أَنَّ رَجُلاً مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ جَاءَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَلاَ تَسْتَعْمِلْنِي كَمَا اسْتَعْمَلْتَ فُلاَنًا قَالَ إِنَّكُمْ سَتَلْقَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي عَلَى الْحَوْضِ

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لِلْأَنْصَارِ إِنَّكُمْ سَتَلْقَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً قَالُوا فَمَا تَأْمُرُنَا؟ قَالَ اصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي عَلَى الْحَوْضِ
Will you not appoint me governor as you have appointed so and so? He (the Messenger of Allah) said: You will surely come across preferential treatment after me, so you should be patient until you meet me at the Cistern (Haud-i-Kauthar). (Using translation from Muslim 1845a)
أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ جَاءَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَلَا تَسْتَعْمِلُنِي كَمَا اسْتَعْمَلْتَ فُلَانًا؟ قَالَ «إِنَّكُمْ سَتَلْقَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي عَلَى الْحَوْضِ»
