At the 2nd pledge of Al-Aqabah when the muslims of Medina met with Rasool (saw) to pledge their support to him.
They (muslims of Medina) said that they would accept the Messenger of Allah (saw) on these conditions and then inquired, <b>"What is in it for us, O Messenger of Allah, in return for our loyalty?" Allah’s Messenger (saw) replied confidently, "Jannah." </b> They stretched their hands forth, and he (saw) stretched his hand and they pledged their word...
What more benefit can one ask for from following the footsteps of Rasool (saw)
Sobhanallah! May Allah SWT make us like those of Medina.
Aameen!
