It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Thabit bin Qays (may Allah be pleased with him) delivered a speech on the occasion of the arrival of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in Madinah and said: "We will protect you just as we protect our own lives and our children; so what will we get (in return)?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Paradise." He said: "We are content." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs, but they did not record it.
