The Messenger’s testament ﷺ concerning the Anṣār
[ وَصِيَّةُ الرَّسُولِ بِالْأَنْصَارِ ] وَقَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ: وَحَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ يَوْمَ صَلَّى وَاسْتَغْفَرَ لِأَصْحَابِ أُحُدٍ، وَذَكَرَ مِنْ أَمْرِهِمْ مَا ذَكَرَ مَعَ مَقَالَتِهِ يَوْمئِذٍ: يَا مَعْشَرَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ، اسْتَوْصُوا بِالْأَنْصَارِ خَيْرًا، فَإِنَّ النَّاسَ يَزِيدُونَ، وَإِنَّ الْأَنْصَارَ عَلَى هَيْئَتِهَا لَا تَزِيدُ، وَإِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا عَيْبَتِي الَّتِي أَوَيْتُ إلَيْهَا، فَأَحْسِنُوا إلَى مُحْسِنِهِمْ، وَتَجَاوَزُوا عَنْ مُسِيئِهِمْ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: ثُمَّ نَزَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ، فَدَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ وَتَتَامَّ بِهِ وَجَعُهُ، حَتَّى غُمِرَ
Translation
✧ [The Messenger's testament concerning the Anṣār] Ibn Isḥāq said: al-Zuhrī said: ʿAbd Allāh b. Kaʿb b. Mālik related to me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said on the day he prayed and sought forgiveness for the companions of Uḥud, and mentioned of their affair what he mentioned, along with his statement on that day: "O company of the Muhājirūn, enjoin good treatment of the Anṣār, for the people are increasing, while the Anṣār, as they are now, are not increasing. They were my close companions (ʿaybah) with whom I took refuge, so be good to the good ones among them and overlook the wrongdoers among them." ʿAbd Allāh said: Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ descended, entered his house, and his illness intensified until he was overcome.
