Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ أَنَّ نَاسًا مِنْ الْأَنْصَارِ قَالُوا يَوْمَ حُنَيْنٍ حِينَ أَفَاءَ اللَّهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ أَمْوَالَ هَوَازِنَ وَطَفِقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُعْطِي رِجَالًا مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ الْمِائَةَ مِنْ الْإِبِلِ كُلَّ رَجُلٍ فَقَالُوا يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُعْطِي قُرَيْشًا وَيَتْرُكُنَا وَسُيُوفُنَا تَقْطُرُ مِنْ دِمَائِهِمْ قَالَ أَنَسٌ فَحُدِّثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمَقَالَتِهِمْ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى الْأَنْصَارِ فَجَمَعَهُمْ فِي قُبَّةٍ مِنْ أَدَمٍ وَلَمْ يَدْعُ أَحَدًا غَيْرَهُمْ فَلَمَّا اجْتَمَعُوا جَاءَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ مَا حَدِيثٌ بَلَغَنِي عَنْكُمْ فَقَالَتْ الْأَنْصَارُ أَمَّا ذَوُو رَأْيِنَا فَلَمْ يَقُولُوا شَيْئًا وَأَمَّا نَاسٌ حَدِيثَةٌ أَسْنَانُهُمْ فَقَالُوا كَذَا وَكَذَا لِلَّذِي قَالُوا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنِّي لَأُعْطِي رِجَالًا حُدَثَاءَ عَهْدٍ بِكُفْرٍ أَتَأَلَّفُهُمْ أَوْ قَالَ أَسْتَأْلِفُهُمْ أَفَلَا تَرْضَوْنَ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ النَّاسُ بِالْأَمْوَالِ وَتَرْجِعُونَ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ إِلَى رِحَالِكُمْ فَوَاللَّهِ لَمَا تَنْقَلِبُونَ بِهِ خَيْرٌ مِمَّا يَنْقَلِبُونَ بِهِ قَالُوا أَجَلْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَدْ رَضِينَا فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّكُمْ سَتَجِدُونَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً شَدِيدَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْا اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَإِنِّي فَرَطُكُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ قَالَ أَنَسٌ فَلَمْ نَصْبِرْ.
English Translation
Abd al-Razzaq told us, he said: Ma'mar informed us, from al-Zuhri, who said: Anas ibn Malik informed me, that some people among the Ansar said, on the day of Hunayn, when Allah granted His Messenger the wealth of Hawazin as spoils, and the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, began to give men of Quraysh a hundred camels each: they said, "May Allah forgive the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him -- he gives to Quraysh and leaves us, while our swords still drip with their blood!" Anas said: This saying of theirs was reported to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, so he sent for the Ansar and gathered them in a leather tent, inviting no one else besides them. When they had gathered, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, came to them and said, "What is this talk that has reached me about you?" The Ansar said, "As for our men of judgment, they said nothing; but as for some of the younger ones among us, they said such-and-such," referring to what had been said. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "I give to men recently free of disbelief, to win their hearts" -- or he said, "to conciliate them -- do you not approve that other people go away with the wealth, while you return with the Messenger of Allah to your homes? For by Allah, what you will return with is better than what they will return with." They said, "Yes indeed, O Messenger of Allah, we are content." The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said to them, "You will find after me a severe preference for others over you, so be patient until you meet Allah and His Messenger, for I am your forerunner at the Basin." Anas said: But we did not have patience.
