From us this wind opened. And the Ansar, the Ansar of Aws and Khazraj, aided the Prophet, peace be upon him, in the beginning of time. And the people of Khurasan aided his successors at the end of time. This nourished us, and we nourished our children with it, and it became a lineage for us that we know only by it.
