Hazrat Abu Usaid (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The family of Banu Najjar is the best household among the Ansar, then the family of Banu Abd al-Ashhal, then the family of Banu Harith bin Khazraj, then the family of Banu Sa'idah, and every household of the Ansar is excellent. Sa'd bin Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I think the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has given superiority to several tribes of the Ansar over us. Someone said to him: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has also given you superiority over many tribes.
