Anas Bin Malik reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to Medina and stayed in the upper part of Medina for fourteen nights with a tribe called Banu Amr b Auf. He then sent for the chiefs of Banu AlNajir; and they came with swords around their inecks. He the narrator said: I perceive as if I am seeing the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on his ride with Abu Bakr behind him and the chiefs of Banu AlNajjar around him till he alighted in the courtyard of Abu Ayoub. He the narrator said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said prayer when the time came for prayer; and he prayed in the fold of goats and sheep. He then ordered Masjids to be built and sent for the chiefs of Banu AlNajjar; and they came to him. He the Holy Prophet said to them: O Banu AlNajjar; sell these lands of yours to me. They said: No; by Allah. we would not demand their price; but reward from the Lord. Anas said: There in these lands were trees and graves of the polytheists; and ruins. The Messenger of Allah may peace he upon him ordered that the trees should be cut; and the graves should be dug out; and the ruins should be levelled. The trees were thus placed in rows towards the qibla and the stones were set on both sides of the door; and while building the Masjid they the Companions sang rajaz verses along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ : O Allah: there is no good but the good of the next world; So help the Ansar and the Muhajirin.
