5382 The Muhajir are those who forsook their homes and property in Makkah in order to assist the holy Prophet in his<br />

migration to Madinah (Hijrat). Their devotion and sincerity were proved beyond doubt by their self-denial, and they<br />

were now to be rewarded. (59.8)<br />

59:9 - But those who before them had homes (in Medina) and had adopted the Faith show their<br />

affection to such as came to them for refuge and entertain no desire in their hearts for things<br />

given to the (latter) but give them preference over themselves even though poverty was their<br />

(own lot). And those saved from the covetousness of their own souls they are the ones that<br />

achieve prosperity. 5383<br />

5383 This refers to the Ansar (the Helpers), the people of Madinah who accepted Islam when it was persecuted in Makkah,<br />

and who invited the holy Prophet to join them and become their Leader in Madinah. The Hijrat was possible because<br />

of their goodwill and their generous hospitality. They entertained the Prophet and all the refugees (Muhajirs) who<br />

came with him. The most remarkable ties of full brotherhood were established between individual members of the one<br />

group and the other. Until the Ummat got its own resources, the Helpers regularly gave and the Refugees regularly<br />

received. The Helpers counted it a privilege to entertain the Refugees, and even the poor vied with the rich in their<br />

spirit of self-sacrifice. When the confiscated land and property of the Banu Nadhir was divided, and the major portion<br />

was assigned to the refugees, there was not the least jealousy on the part of the Helpers. They rejoiced in the good<br />

fortune of their brethren. And incidentally they were themselves relieved of anxiety and responsibility on their behalf.<br />

Hadith 17<br />

Narrated by<br />

Muhajir ibn Qunfudh<br />

Muhajir came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) while he was urinating. He saluted him. The Prophet (peace be upon him)<br />

did not return the salutation to him until he performed ablution. He then apologised to him, saying: I disliked remembering<br />

Allah except in the state of purification.<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 5.175 Narrated by<br />

Qais bin Abi Hazim<br />

Abu Bakr went to a lady from the Ahmas tribe called Zainab bint Al-Muhajir and found that she refused to speak. He asked,<br />

"Why does she not speak?" The people said, "She has intended to perform Hajj without speaking." He said to her, "Speak, for<br />

it is illegal not to speak, as it is an action of the pre-Islamic period of ignorance. So she spoke and said, "Who are you?" He<br />

said, "A man from the emigrants." She asked, "Which emigrants?" He replied, "From Quraish." She asked, "From what<br />

branch of Quraish are you?" He said, "You ask too many questions; I am Abu Bakr." She said, "How long shall we enjoy this<br />

good order (i.e. Islamic religion) which Allah has brought after the period of ignorance?" He said, "You will enjoy it as long as<br />

your Imams keep on abiding by its rules and regulations." She asked, "What are the Imams?" He said, "Were there not<br />

heads and chiefs of your nation who used to order the people and they used to obey them?" She said, "Yes." He said, "So<br />

they (i.e. the Imams) are those whom I meant."<br />
