Book 56: Fighting for the Cause of Allah (Jihaad)
Narrated Anas:
On the day (of the battle) of the Trench, the Ansar were saying, “We are those who have sworn
allegiance to Muhammad for Jihaid (for ever) as long as we live.” The Prophet (ﷺ) replied to them, “O
Allah! There is no life except the life of the Hereafter. So honor the Ansar and emigrants with Your
Generosity.”
حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَنَسًا ـ رضى الله عنه ـ يَقُولُ كَانَتِ الأَنْصَارُ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ تَقُولُ نَحْنُ الَّذِينَ بَايَعُوا مُحَمَّدَا عَلَى الْجِهَادِ مَا حَيِينَا أَبَدَا فَأَجَابَهُمُ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ لاَ عَيْشَ إِلاَّ عَيْشُ الآخِرَهْ فَأَكْرِمِ الأَنْصَارَ وَالْمُهَاجِرَهْ
