Brotherhood between the Emigrants and the Helpers

At the house of Anas bin Malik he pairs 90 men, half Emigrants from Makkah and half Helpers of Madinah, as brothers in faith. Sa’d bin ar-Rabi’ offers half his wealth to ‘Abdur-Rahman bin ‘Awf, who thanks him and asks only to be shown the market.

As the book dates it: early in 1 A.H.

Kindly direct me to the market so that I may make my fortune with my own hands.
