It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw the children and women of the Ansar coming from a wedding, he (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up and said: Allah is witness that among you people, you are the most beloved to me. Allah is witness that you are among the people I love the most. Allah knows that you Ansar are among the people I love the most. In another narration, the words are as follows: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said three times: By Him in Whose hand is my soul, you are the most beloved to me among all people.
