48. Virtues of the Companions
٤٨۔ كِتَابُ الْمَنَاقِبِ
"Ibn 'Abbas said: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Abu Bakr and 'Umar were among the Muhajirin (emigrants), because they forsook (hajaru) the idolators, and some of the Ansar were Muhajirun because Al-Madinah was a land of shirk, and they came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the Night of Al-'Aqabah."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4166)
قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِمَكَّةَ وَإِنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَأَصْحَابَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ كَانُوا مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ لِأَنَّهُمْ هَجَرُوا الْمُشْرِكِينَ وَكَانَ الْأَنْصَارُ مُهَاجِرِينَ لَأَنَّ الْمَدِينَةَ كَانَتْ دَارَ شِرْكٍ فَجَاءُوا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ لَيْلَةَ الْعَقَبَةِ»
“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ liked the Muhajirun and Ansar to stand closest to him, so that they could learn from him.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 977)
قَالَ أَنَسٌ كَانَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ «يُحِبُّ أَنْ يَلِيَهُ الْمُهَاجِرُونَ وَالْأَنْصَارُ لِيَأْخُذُوا عَنْهُ»
[Machine] We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ at the trench when he said, "O Allah, there is no life except the life of the hereafter, so forgive the immigrants and the supporters."
كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بَالْخَنْدَقِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «اللهُمَّ لَا عَيْشَ إِلَّا عَيْشُ الْآخِرَةِ فَاغْفِرْ لِلْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالْأَنْصَارِ»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Allah, indeed the best is the good of the hereafter, so rectify the Ansar and the Muhajirun."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «اللهُمَّ إِنَّ الْخَيْرَ خَيْرُ الْآخِرَةِ فَأَصْلِحِ الْأَنْصَارَ وَالْمُهَاجِرَةَ»
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «اللهُمَّ إِنَّ الْخَيْرَ خَيْرُ الْآخِرَةِ اغْفِرْ لِلْأَنْصَارِ وَالْمُهَاجِرَةِ»
[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said in the Hadith, "Honor the Ansar and the Muhajireen."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ فِي الْحَدِيثِ «أَكْرِمِ الْأَنْصَارَ وَالْمُهَاجِرَةَ»
On the day (of the battle) of the Trench, the Ansar were saying, "We are those who have sworn allegiance to Muhammad for Jihaid (for ever) as long as we live." The Prophet ﷺ replied to them, "O Allah! There is no life except the life of the Hereafter. So honor the Ansar and emigrants with Your Generosity." (Using translation from Bukhārī 2961)
كَانَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ تَقُولُ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ [البحر الرجز] نَحْنُ الَّذِينَ بَايَعُوا مُحَمَّدَا عَلَى الْجِهَادِ مَا حَيِينَا أَبَدَا فَأَجَابَهُمُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «اللهُمَّ لَا عَيْشَ إِلَّا عَيْشُ الْآخِرَةِ فَاغْفِرْ لِلْأَنْصَارِ وَالْمُهَاجِرَةِ»
The Prophet ﷺ went out on a cold morning while the Muhajirin (emigrants) and the Ansar were digging the trench. The Prophet ﷺ then said, "O Allah! The real goodness is the goodness of the Here after, so please forgive the Ansar and the Muhajirin." They replied, "We are those who have given the Pledge of allegiance to Muhammad for to observe Jihad as long as we remain alive." (Using translation from Bukhārī 7201)
خَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي غَدَاةٍ بَارِدَةٍ وَالْمُهَاجِرُونَ وَالْأَنْصَارُ يَحْفِرُونَ الْخَنْدَقَ فَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ إِنَّ الْخَيْرَ خَيْرُ الْآخِرَةِ فَاغْفِرْ لِلْأَنْصَارِ وَالْمُهَاجِرَةِ» فَأَجَابُوهُ [البحر الرجز] نَحْنُ الَّذِينَ بَايَعُوا مُحَمَّدَا عَلَى الْجِهَادِ مَا بَقِينَا أَبَدَا
The Emigrants and the Ansar started digging the trench around Medina carrying the earth on their backs and saying, "We are those who have given a pledge of allegiance to Muhammad that we will I carry on Jihad as long as we live." The Prophet ﷺ kept on replying, "O Allah, there is no good except the good of the Hereafter; so confer Your Blessings on the Ansar and the Emigrants." (Using translation from Bukhārī 2835)
جَعَلَ الْمُهَاجِرُونَ وَالْأَنْصَارُ يَحْفِرُونَ الْخَنْدَقَ حَوْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ وَهُمْ يَرْتَجِزُونَ وَيَنْقُلُونَ التُّرَابَ عَلَى مُتُونِهِمْ وَيَقُولُونَ «نَحْنُ الَّذِينَ بَايَعُوا مُحَمَّدًا عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ مَا بَقِينَا أَبَدًا» فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «وَهُوَ يُجِيبُهُمُ اللهُمَّ لَا خَيْرَ إِلَّا خَيْرُ الْآخِرَةِ فَبَارِكْ فِي الْأَنْصَارِ وَالْمُهَاجِرَةِ»
