حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي التَّيَّاحِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ قَالَ
لَمَّا فُتِحَتْ مَكَّةُ قَسَمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْغَنَائِمَ فِي قُرَيْشٍ، فَقَالَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ: هَذَا لَهُوَ الْعَجَبُ، إِنَّ سُيُوفَنَا تَقْطُرُ مِنْ دِمَائِهِمْ، وَإِنَّ غَنَائِمَنَا تُرَدُّ عَلَيْهِمْ، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَمَعَهُمْ، فَقَالَ: مَا هَذَا الَّذِي بَلَغَنِي عَنْكُمْ؟ قَالُوا: هُوَ الَّذِي بَلَغَكَ، وَكَانُوا لَا يَكْذِبُونَ، فَقَالَ: أَمَا تَرْضَوْنَ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ النَّاسُ بِالدُّنْيَا وَتَرْجِعُونَ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ [ ﷺ ] إِلَى بُيُوتِكُمْ؟ لَوْ سَلَكَ النَّاسُ وَادِيًا أَوْ شِعْبًا وَسَلَكَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ وَادِيًا أَوْ شِعْبًا لَسَلَكْتُ وَادِيَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَوْ شِعْبَ الْأَنْصَارِ

When Mecca was conquered, he (the Holy Prophet) distributed the spoils among the Quraish. Upon this the Ansar said: It is strange that our swords are dripping with their blood, whereas our spoils have been given to them (to the Quraish). This (remark) reached the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and so he gathered them and said: What is this that has been conveyed to me about you? They said: (Yes) it is that very thing that, has reached you and they were not (the people) to speak a lie. Upon this he said: Don't you like that the people should return to their houses along with worldly riches, whereas you should return to your houses with the Messenger of Allah? If the people were to tread a valley or a narrow path, and the Ansar were also to tread a valley or a narrow path, I would tread the valley (along with the) Ansar or the narrow path (along with the) Ansar. (Using translation from Muslim 1059e)
