English narration

Narrated by أنس بن مالك الأنصاري

The Emigrants and the Ansar started digging the trench around Medina carrying the earth on their backs and saying, "We are those who have given a pledge of allegiance to Muhammad that we will I carry on Jihad as long as we live." The Prophet (ﷺ) kept on replying, "O Allah, there is no good except the good of the Hereafter; so confer Your Blessings on the Ansar and the Emigrants."

اللهم إنه لا خير إلا خير الآخره فبارك في الأنصار والمهاجره
