Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 43, Hadith 443

Abu Sa’id al-Khudri said: When Banu Quraizah capitulated agreeing to accept Sa’d’s judgement, the Prophet (ﷺ) sent a messenger to him. When he came riding on a white ass, the prophet (ﷺ) said: stand up to (show respect to) your chief, or he said : “to the best of you”. He came and sat beside the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him).

حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، أَنَّ أَهْلَ، قُرَيْظَةَ لَمَّا نَزَلُوا عَلَى حُكْمِ سَعْدٍ أَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَجَاءَ عَلَى حِمَارٍ أَقْمَرَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏”‏ قُومُوا إِلَى سَيِّدِكُمْ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ أَوْ ‏”‏ إِلَى خَيْرِكُمْ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ فَجَاءَ حَتَّى قَعَدَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏.‏

Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 43, Hadith 443

 
This hadith is from the Sunan Abi Dawud collection of hadiths. Sunan Abi Dawud constitutes a seminal work within the Kutub al-Sittah (the Six Books), the canonical compendiums of hadith in Sunni Islam. Authored by Abu Dawud Sulayman ibn al-Ash’ath al-Sijistani (817–889 CE), the collection is systematically organized into kitabs (books) that primarily address matters of fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence). Containing precisely 4,800 hadiths, it is critically acclaimed not only for its content but for the compiler’s scholarly annotations, which frequently assess the authenticity (sihha) and reliability of the included isnads (chains of transmission). Its status is thus one of pronounced authority, though it is not exclusively limited to sahih (authentic) grade hadiths.
