اُردوEn
عَنْ أَبِي أُسَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ”خَيْرُ دُورِ الْأَنْصَارِ بَنُو النَّجَّارِ ثُمَّ بَنُو عَبْدِ الْأَشْهَلِ ثُمَّ بَنُو الْحَارِثِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ ثُمَّ بَنُو سَاعِدَةَ“ ثُمَّ قَالَ ”وَفِي كُلِّ دُورِ الْأَنْصَارِ خَيْرٌ“ فَقَالَ سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ جَعَلَنَا رَابِعَ أَرْبَعَةٍ أَسْرِجُوا لِي حِمَارِي فَقَالَ ابْنُ أَخِيهِ أَتُرِيدُ أَنْ تَرُدَّ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَسْبُكَ أَنْ تَكُونَ رَابِعَ أَرْبَعَةٍ
It is narrated from Abu Usaid Sa'idi (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Among the households of the Ansar, the best household is that of Banu Najjar, after them Banu Abd al-Ashhal, after them Banu Harith bin Khazraj, and after them Banu Sa'idah. In fact, there is goodness in all the households of the Ansar. Upon hearing this, Sayyiduna Sa'd bin 'Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned our name at the fourth place; saddle my donkey (I will go and complain to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him). But his nephew said to him: Will you object to the words of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? It is enough of an honor for you that you are in the fourth place.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Just as it is clear in every instance that some tribes possess superiority over others due to their characteristics, exactly the same was the case with the Ansar. In any case, goodness and virtue were found in all the tribes of the Ansar, but even so, the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), considering their precedence in accepting Islam, their sacrifices for Islam, and their temperaments, gave preference to some of their tribes over others.
