The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner asks: Why are the Muhajireen better than the Ansar (may Allah be pleased with them)?
The Shaykh:
Because they left their homes and their wealth, while the Ansar (may Allah be pleased with them) were in their land; they did not leave their land, nor did they leave their farms or their houses. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. And this questioner asks: What is the ruling on traveling to countries?
The Shaykh:
You will find the Muhajireen mentioned before the Ansar in the Qur'an in all the verses,[At-Tawbah 9:100], [At-Tawbah 9:117], yes, [At-Tawbah 9:117] so the Muhajireen are given precedence over the Ansar in mention, and they are given precedence in virtue. Yes.

And the first forerunners [in the faith] among the Muhajireen and the Ansar
وَالسَّابِقُونَ الْأَوَّلُونَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالْأَنصَارِAllah has already forgiven the Prophet and the Muhajireen and the Ansar
لَّقَد تَّابَ اللَّهُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ وَالْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالْأَنصَارِAllah has already forgiven the Prophet and the Muhajireen and the Ansar who followed him in the hour of difficulty
لَّقَد تَّابَ اللَّهُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ وَالْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالْأَنصَارِ الَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوهُ فِي سَاعَةِ الْعُسْرَةِ
