حَدَّثَنَا قَبِيصَةُ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ كَانَ جُهَيْنَةُ ، وَمُزَيْنَةُ ، وَأَسْلَمُ ، وَغِفَارُ خَيْرًا مِنْ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ ، وَبَنِي أَسَدٍ وَمِنْ بَنِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ غَطَفَانَ وَمِنْ بَنِي عَامِرِ بْنِ صَعْصَعَةَ ، فَقَالَ : رَجُلٌ خَابُوا وَخَسِرُوا ، فَقَالَ هُمْ خَيْرٌ مِنْ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ ، وَمِنْ بَنِي أَسَدٍ ، وَمِنْ بَنِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ غَطَفَانَ ، وَمِنْ بَنِي عَامِرِ بْنِ صَعْصَعَةَ " .
Narrated Abu Bakra: The Prophet said, "Do you think that the tribes of Juhaina, Muzaina, Aslam and Ghifar are better than the tribes of Bani Tamim, Bani Asad, Bam `Abdullah bin Ghatafan and Bani Amir bin Sasaa?" A man said, "They were unsuccessful and losers." The Prophet added," (Yes), they are better than the tribes of Bani Tamim, Bani Asad, Bani `Abdullah bin Ghatafan and Bani Amir bin Sasaa."

Hadith Commentary:
In the era of ignorance (Jahiliyyah), the tribes of Juhaynah, Muzaynah, Aslam, and Ghifar were considered of lower status compared to the tribes of Banu Tamim, Banu Asad, Banu Abd Allah ibn Ghatafan, and Banu Amir ibn Sa’sa’ah, etc.
Then, when Islam came, these tribes were at the forefront in accepting it; therefore, in honor and virtue, they surpassed the tribes of Banu Tamim and others.

Shaykh Abdul Sattar al-Hammad
Hadith Commentary:
The aforementioned tribes were deemed praiseworthy because they accepted Islam very early and possessed excellent character; furthermore, their hearts were soft and tender.
In contrast, Banu Asad and others, after the passing of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), joined Talhah bin Khuwailid and became apostates, and Banu Tamim also turned away from Islam by joining the claimant to prophethood, Sajah. Therefore, the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) considered Juhaynah, Muzaynah, Aslam, and Ghifar superior in comparison to those tribes.
