Hadith #2
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ إِنِّي لَأَسْعَى فِي الْغِلْمَانِ يَقُولُونَ جَاءَ مُحَمَّدٌ فَأَسْعَى فَلَا أَرَى شَيْئًا ثُمَّ يَقُولُونَ جَاءَ مُحَمَّدٌ فَأَسْعَى فَلَا أَرَى شَيْئًا قَالَ حَتَّى جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَصَاحِبُهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَكُنَّا فِي بَعْضِ حِرَارِ الْمَدِينَةِ ثُمَّ بَعَثَنَا رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ لِيُؤْذِنَ بِهِمَا الْأَنْصَارَ فَاسْتَقْبَلَهُمَا زُهَاءَ خَمْسِ مِائَةٍ مِنْ الْأَنْصَارِ حَتَّى ا
نْتَهَوْا إِلَيْهِمَا فَقَالَتْ الْأَنْصَارُ انْطَلِقَا آمِنَيْنِ مُطَاعَيْنِ فَأَقْبَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَصَاحِبُهُ بَيْنَ أَظْهُرِهِمْ فَخَرَجَ أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ حَتَّى إِنَّ الْعَوَاتِقَ لَفَوْقَ الْبُيُوتِ يَتَرَاءَيْنَهُ يَقُلْنَ أَيُّهُمْ هُوَ أَيُّهُمْ هُوَ قَالَ فَمَا رَأَيْنَا مَنْظَرًا مُشْبِهًا بِهِ يَوْمَئِذٍ قَالَ أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ يَوْمَ دَخَلَ عَلَيْنَا وَيَوْمَ قُبِضَ فَلَمْ أَرَ يَوْمَيْنِ مُشْبِهًا بِهِمَا

English Translation
Hashim narrated to us, Sulayman narrated to us, from Thabit, from Anas ibn Malik (رضي الله عنه) who said: I was running among the boys when they were saying, 'Muhammad has come!' So I would run but see nothing. Then they said again, 'Muhammad has come!' So I would run but see nothing. Until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr (رضي الله عنه) arrived. They took shelter in some date-palm gardens, then they sent a man from the people of Madinah to announce their arrival. About five hundred of the Ansar came out to meet them until they reached them. The Ansar said, 'Proceed, both of you, in safety and obedience.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr proceeded among them.
