"And the foremost to embrace Islam of the Muhajirun (those who migrated from Makkah to Al-Madinah) and the Ansar (those who helped the Muhajirun)," Qatadah said:
Whoever prayed towards the two qiblahs with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), he is among the foremost to embrace Islam.
﴿وَالسَّابِقُونَ الأَوَّلُونَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالأَنْصَارِ﴾ قَالَ قَتَادَةُ:
مَنْ كَانَ صَلَّى مَعَ رَسُول اللَّهِ ﷺ الْقِبْلَتَيْنِ فَهُوَ مِنَ السَّابِقين الْأَوَّلين
