Distribution of Hunayn Spoils at Ji'ranah

The Prophet distributed the massive war spoils from Hunayn at Ji'ranah. He gave generously to the newly converted Quraysh chiefs (mu'allafat al-qulub, those whose hearts were being reconciled) to strengthen their Islam. The Ansar were troubled that they received less. The Prophet addressed them: 'Are you not satisfied that people go home with sheep and camels while you go home with the Messenger of Allah?' The Ansar wept and replied: 'We are satisfied with the Messenger of Allah as our share.'
