وَرُوِيَ فِي «شَرْحِ السُّنَّةِ» : أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَقْطَعَ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ الدُّورَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ وَهِيَ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَانَيْ عِمَارَةِ الْأَنْصَارِ مِنَ الْمَنَازِلِ وَالنَّخْلِ فَقَالَ بَنُو عَبْدِ بن زهرَة: نكتب عَنَّا ابْنَ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ الله: «فَلِمَ ابْتَعَثَنِي اللَّهُ إِذًا؟ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُقَدِّسُ أُمَّةً لَا يُؤْخَذُ لِلضَّعِيفِ فِيهِمْ حَقُّهُ»

It is reported in Sharh al-Sunnah that the Prophet ﷺ allotted houses in Medina to Abdullah ibn Masud, among the homes and date palms within the settled area of the Ansar. The clan of Banu Abd ibn Zuhrah said, “Remove Ibn Umm Abd from among us.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to them: “Why, then, did Allah send me? Allah does not sanctify a people among whom the right of the weak is not secured.”
