ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ مَكَّةَ خَيْرُ أَرْضِ اللَّهِ، وَأَحَبُّهَا إِلَى اللَّهِ
“I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, when he was on his she-camel, standing in Al-Hazwarah* saying: ‘By Allah, you are the best land of Allah, and the dearest of the land of Allah to me. By Allah, had I not been expelled from you I would never have left.’” *A place in Makkah. (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3108)
رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ وَاقِفًا بِالْحَزْوَرَةِ يَقُولُ «وَاللَّهِ إِنَّكِ لَخَيْرُ أَرْضِ اللَّهِ وَأَحَبُّ أَرْضِ اللَّهِ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَلَوْلَا أَنِّي أُخْرِجْتُ مِنْكِ مَا خَرَجْتُ»
