Question:
The brother Abu Ahmad asks: What is the occasion of the Messenger's (peace and blessings be upon him) saying to the Companions: "Do you not love
the people take the sheep and camelsأن يذهب الناس بالشاة والبعير
Sahih al-Bukhari 4333
and that you should go away with the Messenger of Allah?"

Answer:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said this to the Ansar (may Allah be pleased with them) when he distributed the war spoils and gave to those whose hearts were being reconciled, increasing their share in order to firm them in Islam, and he did not give the Ansar anything from it because he entrusted them with their faith.
When some talk arose from them, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) convinced them and said, meaning this phrase:
Won't you be pleased that the people take the sheep and camelsأترضون أن يذهب الناس بالشاة والبعير
Sahih al-Bukhari 4333
meaning the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) gives to those whose hearts are being reconciled, and you go away with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), because the Messenger informed that he is from the Ansar and that he will remain in their land and with them until Allah Mighty and Majestic takes his soul, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) fulfilled that. Yes.
