ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ الْأَثَرَةِ الَّتِي أَمَرَ الْمُصْطَفَى ﷺ لِلْأَنْصَارِ بِالصَّبِرِ عِنْدَ وُجُودِهَا بَعْدَهُ
[Machine] Usaid ibn Hudayr al-Ashhali, the leader, came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and mentioned to him a family from the Ansar who had a need. The Prophet ﷺ said, "You left us until what was in our hands was gone, and when you hear of something that has come to us, mention it to me." So after that, he brought him food from Khaibar, which consisted of barley and dates. The majority of the people in that household were women. The Prophet ﷺ divided the food among the people, the Ansar, and the family. He was generous in his division and said to Usaid ibn Hudayr, "May Allah reward you, O Prophet of Allah, with the best of rewards." The Prophet ﷺ replied, "And you, O group of Ansar, may Allah reward you with the best of rewards. What I have taught you is noble patience and concealment after me in matters and life. So be patient until you meet me at the pond."
