It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say: The real good is the good of the Hereafter, or he would say: O Allah! There is no good except the good of the Hereafter, so forgive the Ansar and the Muhajireen.

Abu Sadaqah, who was the freed slave of Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), says: I asked Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) about the prayer of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so he said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to offer the Zuhr prayer at the time of decline (of the sun), the Asr prayer between these two prayers, the Maghrib prayer at the time of sunset, and the Isha prayer after the disappearance of twilight, and the Fajr prayer when the dawn would break until the eyes could see clearly.

Yasar says that I was walking with Thabit Banani, and on the way he passed by some children, he greeted them with salam and said: It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by some children who were playing, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) greeted them with salam.

Thabit (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once I asked Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), "O Abu Hamzah! Tell us about some strange incident in which you yourself were present and you are not narrating it from anyone else?" He replied, "Once the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) led the Zuhr prayer and then went and sat at the place where Hazrat Jibreel (peace be upon him) used to come to him. Then Hazrat Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) came and gave the adhan for Asr. Every person who had a house in Madinah Munawwarah got up and went for relieving himself and for ablution. Some Muhajireen remained who had no house in Madinah. A large vessel of water was brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) placed his palms in it, but the vessel was not spacious enough, so the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) placed only four fingers in it and said, 'Come close and perform ablution from it.' At that time, the blessed hand of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was in the vessel. So all of them performed ablution from it, and there was not a single person left who did not perform ablution." I asked, "O Abu Hamzah! In your opinion, how many people were there?" He replied, "Between seventy and eighty."

When the Prophet (peace be upon him) learned of this, he called the Ansari companions (may Allah be pleased with them) and gathered them in a tent made of leather, and did not allow anyone else to enter. When they had all gathered, the Prophet (peace be upon him) came and said, "What are these things I have heard about you?" They replied that it was true and they had not lied. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Are you not pleased that people go away with wealth and property, and you return to your homes with the Messenger of Allah? If all the people were to walk in one valley or mountain pass, and the Ansar in another, I would choose the valley and mountain pass of the Ansar."

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was in Jannat al-Baqi', when a man called out to someone by saying "Abul Qasim." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) turned around and looked back, so the man said, "I did not mean you." Upon this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Name yourselves after my name, but do not take my kunya (Abul Qasim) as your kunya."
