Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي التَّيَّاحِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ قَالَ لَمَّا فُتِحَتْ مَكَّةُ قَالَ قَسَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْغَنَائِمَ فِي قُرَيْشٍ فَقَالَتْ الْأَنْصَارُ إِنَّ هَذَا لَهُوَ الْعَجَبُ إِنَّ سُيُوفَنَا تَقْطُرُ مِنْ دِمَا
ئِهِمْ وَإِنَّ غَنَائِمَنَا تُرَدُّ عَلَيْهِمْ فَبَلَغَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَجَمَعَهُمْ فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا الَّذِي بَلَغَنِي عَنْكُمْ فَقَالُوا هُوَ الَّذِي بَلَغَكَ وَكَانُوا لَا يَكْذِبُونَ فَقَالَ أَمَا تَرْضَوْنَ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ النَّاسُ بِالدُّنْيَا وَتَرْجِعُونَ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى بُيُوتِكُمْ لَوْ سَلَكَ النَّاسُ وَادِيًا أَوْ شِعْبًا وَسَلَكَتْ الْأَنْصَارُ وَادِيًا أَوْ شِعْبًا لَسَلَكْتُ وَادِيَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَوْ شِعْبَ الْأَنْصَارِ

English Translation
Muhammad ibn Ja'far narrated to us, Shu'bah narrated to us, from Abu al-Tayyah, he said: I heard Anas ibn Malik (رضي الله عنه) saying: When Makkah was conquered, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ distributed the spoils among the Quraysh. The Ansar said: 'This is strange — our swords are still dripping with their blood, yet our spoils are being given to them!' This reached the Prophet ﷺ, so he gathered the Ansar and said: 'Would you not be pleased that the people take the sheep and camels while you return with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to your homes?' They said: 'We are pleased.' He said: 'If the people took one path and the Ansar took another, I would take the path of the Ansar.'
