Narrated Anas bin Malik:
When Allah favored His Apostle with the properties of Hawazin tribe as Fai (booty), he started giv –
ing to some Quarries men even up to one-hundred camels each, whereupon some Ansari men said
about Allah’s Apostle, “May Allah forgive His Apostle! He is giving to (men of) Quraish and leaves us,
in spite of the fact that our swords are still dropping blood (of the infidels)” When Allah’s Apostle
was informed of what they had said, he called the Ansar and gathered them in a leather tent and did
not call anybody else along, with them. When they gathered, Allah’s Apostle came to them and said,
“What is the statement which, I have been informed, and that which you have said?” The learned
ones among them replied,” O Allah’s Apostle! The wise ones amongst us did not say anything, but the
youngsters amongst us said, ‘May Allah forgive His Apostle; he gives the Quarish and leaves the An –
sar, in spite of the fact that our swords are still dribbling (wet) with the blood of the infidels.’ ” Allah’s
Apostle replied, I give to such people as are still close to the period of Infidelity (i.e. they have re –
cently embraced Islam and Faith is still weak in their hearts). Won’t you be pleased to see people go
with fortune, while you return with Allah’s Apostle to your houses? By Allah, what you will return
with, is better than what they are returning with.” The Ansar replied, “Yes, O Allah’s Apostle, we are
satisfied’ Then the Prophet said to them.” You will find after me, others being preferred to you. Then
be patient till you meet Allah and meet His Apostle at Al-Kauthar (i.e. a fount in Paradise).” (Anas ad –
ded:) But we did not remain patient.
