Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
Some people (i.e. the Jews of Bani bin Quraiza) agreed to accept the verdict of Sad bin Muadh so
the Prophet sent for him (i.e. Sad bin Muadh). He came riding a donkey, and when he approached
the Mosque, the Prophet said, “Get up for the best amongst you.” or said, “Get up for your chief.” Then
the Prophet said, “O Sad! These people have agreed to accept your verdict.” Sad said, “I judge that
their warriors should be killed and their children and women should be taken as captives.” The
Prophet said, “You have given a judgment similar to Allah’s Judgment (or the King’s judgment).”

Narrated ‘Aisha:
I did not feel jealous of any of the wives of the Prophet as much as I did of Khadija (although) she
died before he married me, for I often heard him mentioning her, and Allah had told him to give her
the good tidings that she would have a palace of Qasab (i.e. pipes of precious stones and pearls in
Paradise), and whenever he slaughtered a sheep, he would send her women-friends a good share of
it.

Banu Sa’ida; nevertheless, there is good in all the families (houses) of the Ansar.” On this, Sad (bin
Ubada) said, “I see that the Prophet has preferred some people to us.” Somebody said (to him), “No,
but he has given you superiority to many.”
Volume 5, Book 58, Number 134:
Narrated Abu Usaid:

jar, and then that of Banu ‘Abdul Ash-hal, and then that of Banu Al-Harith, and then that of Banu
Saida; and there is good in all the families (homes) of the Ansar.” Sad bin ‘Ubada followed us and
said, “O Abu Usaid ! Don’t you see that the Prophet compared the Ansar and made us the last of them
in superiority?
Then Sad met the Prophet and said, “O Allah’s Apostle! In comparing the Ansar’s families (homes)
as to the degree of superiority, you have made us the last of them.” Allah’s Apostle replied, “Isn’t it
sufficient that you are regarded amongst the best?”

you meet me at the Tank (i.e. Lake of Kauthar). (on the Day of Resurrection).”
