He who intends to do harm to the people of this city (that is, Medina), Allah would efface him as salt is dissolved in water.  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ ﷺ مَنْ أَرَادَ أَهْلَ هَذِهِ الْبَلْدَةِ بِسُوءٍ يَعْنِي الْمَدِينَةَ أَذَابَهُ اللَّهُ كَمَا يَذُوبُ الْمِلْحُ فِي الْمَاءِ  

He who intends to do harm to its people (he meant Medina), Allah would efface him as salt is dissolved in water. Ibn Hatim (one of the narrators) substituted the word" harm" for" mischief".  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ الْقَرَّاظَ وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنْ أَرَادَ أَهْلَهَا بِسُوءٍ يُرِيدُ الْمَدِينَةَ أَذَابَهُ اللَّهُ كَمَا يَذُوبُ الْمِلْحُ فِي الْمَاءِ قَالَ ابْنُ حَاتِمٍ فِي حَدِيثِ ابْنِ يُحَنِّسَ بَدَلَ قَوْلِهِ بِسُوءٍ شَرًّا  

This hadith is narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira by another chain of transmitters.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِمِثْلِهِ  

He who intends to do harm to the people of Medina, Allah would efface him just as water dissolves salt.  

عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ نُبَيْهٍ أَخْبَرَنِي دِينَارٌ الْقَرَّاظُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعْدَ بْنَ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنْ أَرَادَ أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ بِسُوءٍ أَذَابَهُ اللَّهُ كَمَا يَذُوبُ الْمِلْحُ فِي الْمَاءِ  

" Sudden attack or harm."  

عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ نُبَيْهٍ الْكَعْبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْقَرَّاظِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ سَعْدَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِمِثْلِهِ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ بِدَهْمٍ أَوْ بِسُوءٍ  

O Allah, bless the people of Medina in their mudd, the rest of the hadith being the same, and in It (this is also mentioned):" He wo intends to do harm to its people, Allah would efface him just as salt it dissolved in water."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لأَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ فِي مُدِّهِمْ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ وَفِيهِ مَنْ أَرَادَ أَهْلَهَا بِسُوءٍ أَذَابَهُ اللَّهُ كَمَا يَذُوبُ الْمِلْحُ فِي الْمَاءِ
