Hadith 3616
The Prophet (ﷺ) or Abul-Qasim said, "If the Ansar took their way through a valley or a mountain pass, I
would take Ansar's valley. And but for the migration, I would have been one of the Ansar." Abu
Huraira used to say, "The Prophet (ﷺ) is not unjust (by saying so). May my parents be sacrificed for him,
for the Ansar sheltered and helped him," or said a similar sentence.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 63, Hadith 4

On the day of the Conquest of Mecca, when the Prophet (ﷺ) had given (from the booty) the Quraish, the
Ansar said, "By Allah, this is indeed very strange: While our swords are still dribbling with the blood
of Quraish, our war booty are distributed amongst them." When this news reached the Prophet (ﷺ) he
called the Ansar and said, "What is this news that has reached me from you?" They used not to tell
lies, so they replied, "What has reached you is true." He said, "Doesn't it please you that the people
take the booty to their homes and you take Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) to your homes? If the Ansar took their way
through a valley or a mountain pass, I would take the Ansar's valley or a mountain pass." Sahih al-Bukhari Book 63, Hadith 3

When the emigrants reached Medina. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) established the bond of fraternity between
`Abdur-Rahman and Sa`d bin Ar-Rabi. Sa`d said to `Abdur-Rahman, "I am the richest of all the
Ansar, so I want to divide my property (between us), and I have two wives, so see which of the two
you like and tell me, so that I may divorce her, and when she finishes her prescribed period (i.e. 'Idda)
of divorce, then marry her." `Abdur-Rahman said, "May Allah bless your family and property for you;
where is your market?" So they showed him the Qainuqa' market. (He went there and) returned with a
profit in the form of dried yogurt and butter. He continued going (to the market) till one day he came,
bearing the traces of yellow scent. The Prophet (ﷺ) asked, "What is this (scent)?" He replied, "I got
married." The Prophet (ﷺ) asked, "How much Mahr did you give her?" He replied, "I gave her a datestone
of gold or a gold piece equal to the weight of a date-stone." (The narrator, Ibrahim, is in doubt as
to which is correct.) Sahih al-Bukhari Book 63, Hadith 5
