عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضيَ اللهُ عنه عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «اللهُمَّ لَا عَيْشَ إِلَّا عَيْشُ الْآخِرَهْ، فَاغْفِرْ لِلْأَنْصَارِ وَالْمُهَاجِرَهْ».

Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "By Allah, there is no true life except that of the Hereafter, so forgive the Ansār (Supporters) and the Muhājirah (Emigrants)."
