The Prophet ﷺ said, "May Allah save the tribe of Aslam, and may Allah forgive the tribe of Ghifar!"  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ أَسْلَمُ سَالَمَهَا اللَّهُ وَغِفَارُ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَهَا  

While Messenger of Allah ﷺ was on the pulpit, he said, "May Allah forgive the tribe of Ghifar! And may Allah save the tribe of Aslam! The tribe of ʿUsaiya have disobeyed Allah and His Apostle."  

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ غِفَارُ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَهَا وَأَسْلَمُ سَالَمَهَا اللَّهُ وَعُصَيَّةُ عَصَتِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The tribe of Quraish, the Ansar, the (people of the tribe of) Julhaina, Muzaina, Aslam, Ashja', and Ghifar are my disciples and have no protectors except Allah and His Apostle."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قُرَيْشٌ وَالأَنْصَارُ وَجُهَيْنَةُ وَمُزَيْنَةُ وَأَسْلَمُ وَأَشْجَعُ وَغِفَارُ مَوَالِيَّ لَيْسَ لَهُمْ مَوْلًى دُونَ اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ  

The Prophet ﷺ said, (The people of) Aslam, Ghifar and some people of Muzaina and Juhaina or said (some people of Juhaina or Muzaina) are better with Allah or said (on the Day of resurrection) than the tribe of Asad, Tamim, Hawazin and Ghatafan.  

أَسْلَمُ وَغِفَارُ وَشَىْءٌ مِنْ مُزَيْنَةَ وَجُهَيْنَةَ أَوْ قَالَ شَىْءٌ مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ أَوْ مُزَيْنَةَ خَيْرٌ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَوْ قَالَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مِنْ أَسَدٍ وَتَمِيمٍ وَهَوَازِنَ وَغَطَفَانَ  

Al-Aqra' bin Habis said to the Prophet ﷺ "Nobody gave you the pledge of allegiance but the robbers of the pilgrims (i.e. those who used to rob the pilgrims) from the tribes of Aslam, Ghifar, Muzaina." (Ibn Abi Ya'qub is in doubt whether Al-Aqra' added. 'And Juhaina.') The Prophet ﷺ said, "Don't you think that the tribes of Aslam, Ghifar, Muzaina (and also perhaps) Juhaina are better than the tribes of Bani Tamim, Bani Amir, Asad, and Ghatafan?" Somebody said, "They were unsuccessful and losers!" The Prophet said, "Yes, by Him in Whose Hands my life is, they (i.e. the former) are better than they (i.e. the latter).  

لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِنَّمَا بَايَعَكَ سُرَّاقُ الْحَجِيجِ مِنْ أَسْلَمَ وَغِفَارَ وَمُزَيْنَةَ وَأَحْسِبُهُ وَجُهَيْنَةَ ابْنُ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ شَكَّ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ كَانَ أَسْلَمُ وَغِفَارُ وَمُزَيْنَةُ وَأَحْسِبُهُ وَجُهَيْنَةُ خَيْرًا مِنْ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ وَبَنِي عَامِرٍ وَأَسَدٍ وَغَطَفَانَ خَابُوا وَخَسِرُوا قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ إِنَّهُمْ لَخَيْرٌ مِنْهُمْ  

Tufail bin ʿAmr Ad-Dausi and his companions came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! The people of the tribe of Daus disobeyed and refused to follow you; so invoke Allah against them." The people said, "The tribe of Daus is ruined." The Prophet ﷺ said, "O Allah! Give guidance to the people of Daus, and let them embrace Islam."  

أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَدِمَ طُفَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الدَّوْسِيُّ وَأَصْحَابُهُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ دَوْسًا عَصَتْ وَأَبَتْ فَادْعُ اللَّهَ عَلَيْهَا فَقِيلَ هَلَكَتْ دَوْسٌ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ اهْدِ دَوْسًا وَائْتِ بِهِمْ  

I have loved the people of the tribe of Bani Tamim ever since I heard, three things, Messenger of Allah ﷺ said about them. I heard him saying, These people (of the tribe of Bani Tamim) would stand firm against Ad-Dajjal." When the Sadaqat (gifts of charity) from that tribe came, Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "These are the Sadaqat (i.e. charitable gifts) of our folk." ʿAisha had a slave-girl from that tribe, and the Prophet ﷺ said to ʿAisha, "Manumit her as she is a descendant of Ishmael (the Prophet).  

مَا زِلْتُ أُحِبُّ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ مُنْذُ ثَلاَثٍ سَمِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ فِيهِمْ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ هُمْ أَشَدُّ أُمَّتِي عَلَى الدَّجَّالِ قَالَ وَجَاءَتْ صَدَقَاتُهُمْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ هَذِهِ صَدَقَاتُ قَوْمِنَا وَكَانَتْ سَبِيَّةٌ مِنْهُمْ عِنْدَ عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَ أَعْتِقِيهَا فَإِنَّهَا مِنْ وَلَدِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ
