Sahih Muslim 1805d (Book 32, Hadith 158) #11786
Pledging Allegiance to Follow Islam

SUMMARY: The Companions of Muhammad were chanting on the day of the Battle of the Ditch, pledging their allegiance to follow Islam and asking God to forgive them.

It has been narrated (through a still different chain of transmitters) by Anas that the Companions of Muhammad were chanting on the day of the Battle of the Ditch: We are those who have sworn allegiance to Muhammad (And made a covenant with him) to follow Islam as long as we live. Hammad is not sure whether Anas said:" Ala'l-Islam" or," Ala'l-Jihad". And the Prophet was chanting: O God, the real good is the good of the Hereafter, So forgive Thou the Ansar and the Muhajirs.
حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ أَصْحَابَ، مُحَمَّدٍ كَانُوا يَقُولُونَ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ نَحْنُ الَّذِينَ بَايَعُوا مُحَمَّدًا عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ مَا بَقِينَا أَبَدًا أَوْ قَالَ عَلَى الْجِهَادِ ‏.‏ شَكَّ حَمَّادٌ وَالنَّبِيُّ يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّ الْخَيْرَ خَيْرُ الآخِرَهْ فَاغْفِرْ لِلأَنْصَارِ وَالْمُهَاجِرَهْ
