I asked Anas, "Tell me about the name 'Al-Ansar.; Did you call yourselves by it or did Allah call you
by it?" He said, "Allah called us by it." We used to visit Anas (at Basra) and he used to narrate to us
the virtues and deeds of the Ansar, and he used to address me or a person from the tribe of Al-Azd and
say, "Your tribe did so-and-so on such-and-such a day."
