حَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ کَانَ يَوْمُ بُعَاثَ يَوْمًا قَدَّمَهُ اللَّهُ لِرَسُولِهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَدْ افْتَرَقَ مَلَؤُهُمْ وَقُتِلَتْ سَرَوَاتُهُمْ وَجُرِّحُوا فَقَدَّمَهُ اللَّهُ لِرَسُولِهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي دُخُولِهِمْ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 3778
Narrated Anas: On the day of the Conquest of Mecca, when the Prophet had given (from the booty) the Quraish, the Ansar said, "By Allah, this is indeed very strange: While our swords are still dribbling with the blood of Quraish, our war booty are distributed amongst them." When this news reached the Prophet he called the Ansar and said, "What is this news that has reached me from you?" They used not to tell lies, so they replied, "What has reached you is true." He said, "Doesn't it please you that the people take the booty to their homes and you take Allah's Apostle to your homes? If the Ansar took their way through a valley or a mountain pass, I would take the Ansar's valley or a mountain pass."
