When Allah gave to His Apostle the war booty on the day of Hunain, he distributed that booty amongst those whose hearts have been (recently) reconciled (to Islam), but did not give anything to the Ansar. So they seemed to have felt angry and sad as they did not get the same as other people had got. The Prophet ﷺ then delivered a sermon before them, saying, "O, the assembly of Ansar! Didn't I find you astray, and then Allah guided you on the Right Path through me? You were divided into groups, and Allah brought you together through me; you were poor and Allah made you rich through me." Whatever the Prophet ﷺ said , they (i.e. the Ansar) said, "Allah and his Apostle have more favours to do." The Prophet ﷺ said, "What stops you from answering the Messenger of Allah?" But whatever he said to them, they replied, "Allah and His Apostle have more favours to do." The Prophet ﷺ then said, "If you wish you could say: 'You came to us in such-and-such state (at Medina).' Wouldn't you be willing to see the people go away with sheep and camels while you go with the Prophet ﷺ to your homes? But for the migration, I would have been one of the Ansar, and if the people took their way through a valley or mountain pass, I would select the valley or mountain pass of the Ansar. The Ansar are Shiar (i.e. those clothes which are in direct contact with the body and worn inside the other garments), and the people are Dithar (i.e. those clothes which are not in direct contact with the body and are worn over other garments). No doubt, you will see other people favoured over you, so you should be patient till you meet me at the Tank (of Kauthar).

لَمَّا أَفَاءَ اللَّهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ حُنَيْنٍ قَسَمَ فِي النَّاسِ فِي الْمُؤَلَّفَةِ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَلَمْ يُعْطِ الأَنْصَارَ شَيْئًا فَكَأَنَّهُمْ وَجَدُوا إِذْ لَمْ يُصِبْهُمْ مَا أَصَابَ النَّاسَ فَخَطَبَهُمْ فَقَالَ يَا مَعْشَرَ الأَنْصَارِ أَلَمْ أَجِدْكُمْ ضُلاَّلاً فَهَدَاكُمُ اللَّهُ بِي وَكُنْتُمْ مُتَفَرِّقِينَ فَأَلَّفَكُمُ اللَّهُ بِي وَعَالَةً فَأَغْنَاكُمُ اللَّهُ بِي كُلَّمَا قَالَ شَيْئًا قَالُوا اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَمَنُّ قَالَ مَا يَمْنَعُكُمْ أَنْ تُجِيبُوا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ كُلَّمَا قَالَ شَيْئًا قَالُوا اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَمَنُّ قَالَ لَوْ شِئْتُمْ قُلْتُمْ جِئْتَنَا كَذَا وَكَذَا أَتَرْضَوْنَ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ النَّاسُ بِالشَّاةِ وَالْبَعِيرِ وَتَذْهَبُونَ بِالنَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِلَى رِحَالِكُمْ لَوْلاَ الْهِجْرَةُ لَكُنْتُ امْرَأً مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ وَلَوْ سَلَكَ النَّاسُ وَادِيًا وَشِعْبًا لَسَلَكْتُ وَادِيَ الأَنْصَارِ وَشِعْبَهَا الأَنْصَارُ شِعَارٌ وَالنَّاسُ دِثَارٌ إِنَّكُمْ سَتَلْقَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي عَلَى الْحَوْضِ

O people of Ansar, did I not find you erring and Allah guided you aright through me, and (in the state of) being destitute and Allah made you free from want through me, and in a state of disunity and Allah united you through me, and they (the Ansar) said: Allah and His Messenger are most benevolent. He (again) said: Why do you not answer me? They said: Allah and His Messenger are the most benevolent. He said, If you wish you should say so and so, and the event (should take) such and such course (and in this connection he made a mention) of so many things. 'Amr is under the impression that he has not been able to remember them. He (the Holy Prophet) further said: Don't you feel happy (over this state of affairs) that the people should go away with goats and camels, and you go to your places along with the Messenger of Allah? The Ansar are inner garments (more close to me) and (other) people are outer garments. Had there not been migration, I would have been a man from among the Ansar. If the people were to tread a valley or a narrow path, I would tread the valley (chosen) by the Ansar or narrow path (trodden) by them. And you would soon find after me preferences (over you in getting material benefits). So you should show patience till you meet me at the Haud (Kauthar).

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمَّا فَتَحَ حُنَيْنًا قَسَمَ الْغَنَائِمَ فَأَعْطَى الْمُؤَلَّفَةَ قُلُوبُهُمْ فَبَلَغَهُ أَنَّ الأَنْصَارَ يُحِبُّونَ أَنْ يُصِيبُوا مَا أَصَابَ النَّاسُ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَخَطَبَهُمْ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا مَعْشَرَ الأَنْصَارِ أَلَمْ أَجِدْكُمْ ضُلاَّلاً فَهَدَاكُمُ اللَّهُ بِي وَعَالَةً فَأَغْنَاكُمُ اللَّهُ بِي وَمُتَفَرِّقِينَ فَجَمَعَكُمُ اللَّهُ بِي وَيَقُولُونَ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَمَنُّ فَقَالَ أَلاَ تُجِيبُونِي فَقَالُوا اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَمَنُّ فَقَالَ أَمَا إِنَّكُمْ لَوْ شِئْتُمْ أَنْ تَقُولُوا كَذَا وَكَذَا وَكَانَ مِنَ الأَمْرِ كَذَا وَكَذَا لأَشْيَاءَ عَدَّدَهَا زَعَمَ عَمْرٌو أَنْ لاَ يَحْفَظُهَا فَقَالَ أَلاَ تَرْضَوْنَ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ النَّاسُ بِالشَّاءِ وَالإِبِلِ وَتَذْهَبُونَ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ إِلَى رِحَالِكُمُ الأَنْصَارُ شِعَارٌ وَالنَّاسُ دِثَارٌ وَلَوْلاَ الْهِجْرَةُ لَكُنْتُ امْرَأً مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ وَلَوْ سَلَكَ النَّاسُ وَادِيًا وَشِعْبًا لَسَلَكْتُ وَادِيَ الأَنْصَارِ وَشِعْبَهُمْ إِنَّكُمْ سَتَلْقَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي عَلَى الْحَوْضِ

لَمَّا أَفَاءَ اللهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ يَوْمَ حُنَيْنٍ مَا أَفَاءَ قَالَ قَسَمَ فِي النَّاسِ فِي الْمُؤَلَّفَةِ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَلَمْ يَقْسِمْ وَلَمْ يُعْطِ الْأَنْصَارَ شَيْئًا فَكَأَنَّهُمْ وَجَدُوا إِذْ لَمْ يُصِبْهُمْ مَا أَصَابَ النَّاسَ فَخَطَبَهُمْ فَقَالَ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَلَمْ أَجِدْكُمْ ضُلَّالًا فَهَدَاكُمُ اللهُ بِي وَكُنْتُمْ مُتَفَرِّقِينَ فَجَمَعَكُمُ اللهُ بِي وَعَالَةً فَأَغْنَاكُمُ اللهُ بِي قَالَ كُلَّمَا قَالَ شَيْئًا قَالُوا اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَمَنُّ قَالَ مَا يَمْنَعُكُمْ أَنْ تُجِيبُونِي؟ قَالُوا اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَمَنُّ قَالَ لَوْ شِئْتُمْ لَقُلْتُمْ جِئْتَنَا كَذَا وَكَذَا أَلَا تَرْضَوْنَأَنْ يَذْهَبَ النَّاسُ بِالشَّاةِ وَالْبَعِيرِ وَتَذْهَبُونَ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ إِلَى رِحَالِكُمْ لَوْلَا الْهِجْرَةُ لَكُنْتُ امْرَأً مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ لَوْ سَلَكَ النَّاسُ وَادِيًا وَشِعْبًا لَسَلَكْتُ وَادِيَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَشِعْبَهُمْ الْأَنْصَارُ شِعَارٌ وَالنَّاسُ دِثَارٌ وَإِنَّكُمْ سَتَلْقَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي عَلَى الْحَوْضِ

[Machine] "People from the Ansar gathered and said, 'He favors others over us'. The Prophet ﷺ heard about this and called them together. He addressed them, saying, 'O people of the Ansar, were you not humiliated and then Allah honored you? They replied, 'Indeed, Allah and His Messenger spoke the truth'. He then asked, 'Were you not misguided and Allah guided you?' They replied, 'Indeed, Allah and His Messenger spoke the truth'. He continued, 'Were you not in poverty and Allah made you rich?' They replied, 'Indeed, Allah and His Messenger spoke the truth'. Then he said, 'Will you not answer me? Will you not say that when you were driven away, we took you in, and when you came to us scared, we gave you safety? Are you not pleased that people take away sheep and camels while you take away the Messenger of Allah to your homes?' If people had traveled through a valley or pass while you also traveled through that valley or pass, I would choose your valley or pass. By Allah, if there was no migration, I would have been one from the Ansar. And certainly, you will meet me by the Pond (in Paradise), so be patient until you meet me there.'"

(Note: The last part of the passage is referring to an event in Islamic history known as the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah.)

اجْتَمَعَ أُنَاسٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَقَالُوا آثَرَ عَلَيْنَا غَيْرَنَا فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَجَمَعَهُمْ ثُمَّ خَطَبَهُمْ فَقَالَ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَلَمْ تَكُونُوا أَذِلَّةً فَأَعَزَّكُمُ اللهُ؟ قَالُوا صَدَقَ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ قَالَ أَلَمْ تَكُونُوا ضُلَّالًا فَهَدَاكُمُ اللهُ؟ قَالُوا صَدَقَ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ قَالَ أَلَمْ تَكُونُوا فُقَرَاءَ فَأَغْنَاكُمُ اللهُ؟ قَالُوا صَدَقَ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَلَا تُجِيبُونَنِي؟ أَلَا تَقُولُونَ أَتَيْتَنَا طَرِيدًا فَآوَيْنَاكَ وَأَتَيْتَنَا خَائِفًا فَآمَنَّاكَ أَلَا تَرْضَوْنَ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ النَّاسُ بِالشَّاءِ وَالْبُقْرَانِ يَعْنِي الْبَقَرَ وَتَذْهَبُونَ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ فَتُدْخِلُونَهُ بُيُوتَكُمْ لَوْ أَنَّ النَّاسَ سَلَكُوا وَادِيًا أَوْ شُعْبَةً وَسَلَكْتُمْ وَادِيًا أَوْ شُعْبَةً لَسَلَكْتُ وَادِيَكُمْ أَوْ شُعْبَتَكُمْ لَوْلَا الْهِجْرَةُ لَكُنْتُ امْرَأً مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَإِنَّكُمْ سَتَلْقَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي عَلَى الْحَوْضِ
