Brotherhood of Muhajireen and Ansar

Description

Upon arriving in Madinah, the Prophet Muhammad established a unique bond of brotherhood (Mu'akhat) between the Muhajireen (migrants from Makkah) and the Ansar (helpers of Madinah). Each Ansari was paired with a Muhajir and they shared their wealth, homes, and resources. This was a remarkable social system that turned strangers into brothers and built the foundation of the first Islamic community.
