Arabic (Original)
وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَوْلَا الْهِجْرَةُ لَكُنْتُ امْرَأً مِنْ الْأَنْصَارِ وَلَوْ يَنْدَفِعُ النَّاسُ فِي شُعْبَةٍ أَوْ فِي وَادٍ وَالْأَنْصَارُ فِي شُعْبَةٍ لَانْدَفَعْتُ فِي شِعْبِهِمْ.
English Translation
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'Were it not for the Hijrah, I would have been a man of the Ansar. If the people were to go through a valley or a mountain pass and the Ansar through another, I would go through the valley of the Ansar.'
