\nNarrated Al-Miswar bin Makhrama:\n \n\nThat `Amr bin `Auf, who was an ally of Bani 'Amir bin Luai and one of those who fought at Badr in \nthe company of the Prophet (ﷺ) , said, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) sent Abu 'Ubaida bin Al-Jarrah to Bahrain to bring \nthe Jizya taxation from its people, for Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had made a peace treaty with the people of \nBahrain and appointed Al-`Ala' bin Al-Hadrami as their ruler. So, Abu 'Ubaida arrived with the \nmoney from Bahrain. When the Ansar heard of the arrival of Abu 'Ubaida (on the next day) they \noffered the morning prayer with the Prophet (ﷺ) and when the morning prayer had finished, they \npresented themselves before him. On seeing the Ansar, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) smiled and said, "I think you \nhave heard that Abu 'Ubaida has brought something?" They replied, "Indeed, it is so, O Allah's \nApostle!" He said, "Be happy, and hope for what will please you. By Allah, I am not afraid that you \nwill be poor, but I fear that worldly wealth will be bestowed upon you as it was bestowed upon those \nwho lived before you. So you will compete amongst yourselves for it, as they competed for it and it \nwill destroy you as it did them."\n
