It has been narrated on the authority of Anas bin Malik (RA) that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: O God, there is no life, but the life of the Hereafter, So forgive Thou the Ansar and the Muhajirs.

According to still another version of the tradition narrated by the same authority, and handed down through a different chain of transmitters, it has been reported that they (the Companions of the Holy Prophet) were reciting rajaz verses and the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was (reciting) with them. And they were chanting: O God, there is no good but the good of the Hereafter. So help Thou the Ansar and the Muhajirs. Shaiban substituted "So forgive Thou"for "So help Thou".

It has been narrated (through a still difterent chain of transmitters) by Anas that the Companions of Muhammad ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) were chanting on the day of the Battle of the Ditch: We are those who have sworn allegiance to Muhammad (And made a covenant with him) to follow Islam as long as we live. Hammad is not sure whether Anas said:" Ala'l-Islam" or," Ala'l-Jihad". And the Holy Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was chanting: O God, the real good is the good of the Hereafter, So forgive Thou the Ansar and the Muhajirs.
