Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْفُضَيْلُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سُلَيْمَانَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي يَحْيَى عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ أَبِي يَزِيدَ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ أَنَّ قَوْمًا قَدِمُوا الْمَدِينَةَ مَعَ النَّ
بِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَبِهَا مَرَضٌ فَنَهَاهُمْ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَخْرُجُوا حَتَّى يَأْذَنَ لَهُمْ فَخَرَجُوا بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّمَا الْمَدِينَةُ كَالْكِيرِ تَنْفِي الْخَبَثَ كَمَا يَنْفِي الْكِيرُ خَبَثَ الْحَدِيدِ

English Translation
Husayn ibn Muhammad narrated to us, al-Fudayl — meaning Ibn Sulayman — narrated to us, Muhammad ibn Abi Yahya narrated to us, from al-Harith ibn Abi Yazid, from Jabir ibn Abdullah al-Ansari (رضي الله عنهما) that some people arrived in Madinah with the Prophet ﷺ who had no homes and no property. So the Prophet ﷺ established brotherhood between the Muhajirun and the Ansar, and said: 'Share your date-palms with your brothers from the Muhajirun.' Each of them would share his date-palms with a Muhajir. They would take half of the fruit and give them the other half, to the point that they even shared the dried fallen dates with them.
