[Machine] I asked, "O Messenger of Allah, where will you stay tomorrow?" This was during his pilgrimage. He replied, "Do we have any Aqil who can offer us a place to stay?" The narration is from Isaq, and Abu Abdur Rahman said that the Hadith of Al-Awza'i is not preserved.  

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيْنَ تَنْزِلُ غَدَا؟ وَذَلِكَ فِي حَجَّتِهِ فَقَالَ «وَهَلْ تَرَكَ لَنَا عَقِيلٌ مَنْزِلًا» وَاللَّفْظُ لِإِسْحَاقَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدِيثُ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ غَيْرُ مَحْفُوظٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The Dajjal (the Antichrist) will not enter Mecca or Medina."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا يَدْخُلُ الدَّجَّالُ مَكَّةَ وَلَا الْمَدِينَةَ»  

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came one day in a hurry and climbed the pulpit. He called out to the people that the prayer is congregational, so the people gathered. He said, "O people, I did not call you out of desire or fear that happened to you, but Tamim Ad-Dari informed me that some people from the people of Palestine boarded a ship and the wind threw them onto an island from the islands of the sea, where they found a beast with long hair that could not be known if it was male or female due to its abundant hair. They asked it, 'Who are you?' It said, 'I am Al-Jassasa.' They asked it, 'Inform us.' It said, 'I will not inform you or spy for you, but there is a poor person in the monastery who is longing to inform you and to spy for you, so they came to the monastery and found a man blind, bald, and chained to iron. They asked him, 'Who are you?' He said, 'I am Al-Arab.' They said, 'Was the Prophet ﷺ sent?' He said, 'Yes.' They said, 'Did the Arabs follow him?' He said, 'Yes.' They said, 'That is best for them.' Then he said, 'What did Persia do?' They said, 'It has not appeared on it yet.' He said, 'It will appear on it.' Then he said, 'What did 'Uyb do?' They said, 'It has poured forth its malcontents.' He said, 'What did Lake Tabariyah do?' They said, 'It has poured forth its malcontents.' He said, 'What did the Date-Palm of Baysan do?' They said, 'It has given food to its first and burst forth such a stream that we feared it will wash us away.' They said, 'Who are you?' He said, 'I am the Dajjal.' He said, 'Indeed, I will land upon the earth from its corner, except for Makkah and Madinah.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'So give glad tidings, O people of the Muslims, this is Madinah which will not be entered by the Dajjal.'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ جَاءَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ مُسْرِعًا فَصَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ فَنُودِيَ فِي النَّاسِ أَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ جَامِعَةٌ فَاجْتَمَعَ النَّاسُ قَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنِّي لَمْ أَدْعُكُمْ لِرَغْبَةٍ وَلَا لِرَهْبَةٍ نَزَلَتْ فِيكُمْ وَلَكِنَّ تَمِيمًا الدَّارِيَّ أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ نَاسًا مِنْ أَهْلِ فِلَسْطِينَ رَكِبُوا الْبَحْرَ فَقَذَفَتْهُمُ الرِّيحُ إِلَى جَزِيرَةٍ مِنْ جَزَائِرِ الْبَحْرِ فَإِذَا هُمْ بِدَابَّةٍ أَشْعَرَ لَا يُدْرَى أَذَكَرٌ هُوَ أَمْ أُنْثَى؟ مِنْ كَثْرَةِ الشَّعْرِ فَقَالُوا مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ قَالَتْ أَنَا الْجَسَّاسَةُ قَالُوا أَخْبِرِينَا قَالَتْ مَا أَنَا بِمُخْبِرَتِكُمْ وَلَا مُسْتَخْبِرَتِكُمْ وَلَكِنْ هَاهُنَا فِي الدَّيْرِ مَنْ هُوَ فَقِيرٌ إِلَى أَنْ يُخْبِرَكُمْ وَإِلَى أَنْ يَسْتَخْبِرَكُمْ فَأَتَوَا الدَّيْرَ فَإِذَا هُمْ بِرَجُلٍ ضَرِيرٍ مُصَفَّدٍ فِي الْحَدِيدِ فَقَالَ مَنْ أَنْتُمْ؟ قَالُوا نَحْنُ الْعَرَبُ قَالَ هَلْ بُعِثَ النَّبِيُّ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ فَهَلِ اتَّبَعَتْهُ الْعَرَبُ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ ذَاكَ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا فَعَلَتْ فَارِسُ؟ قَالُوا لَمْ يَظْهَرْ عَلَيْهَا بَعْدُ قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّهُ سَيَظْهَرُ عَلَيْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا فَعَلَتْ عَيْنُ زُغَرٍ قَالُوا تَدْفُقُ مَلْأَى قَالَ فَمَا فَعَلَتْ بُحَيْرَةُ الطَّبَرِيَّةِ؟ قَالُوا هِيَ تَدْفُقُ مَلْأَى قَالَ فَمَا فَعَلَ نَخْلُ بَيْسَانَ؟ قَالُوا قَدْ أَطْعَمَ أَوَائِلُهُ فَوَثَبَ وَثْبَةً حَتَّى خَشِينَا أَنَّهُ يَنْفَلِتُ فَقُلْنَا مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ قَالَ أَنَا الدَّجَّالُ قَالَ أَمَا إِنِّي سَأَطَأُ الْأَرْضَ كُلَّهَا إِلَّا مَكَّةَ وَطَيْبَةَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «فَأَبْشِرُوا مَعْشَرَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ هَذِهِ طَيْبَةُ لَا يَدْخُلُهَا»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "There was no Prophet before me except that he warned his people against the Antichrist (Dajjal). Verily, he is among you, O Ummah (nation). Indeed, he will travel throughout the earth except for this blessed land (Mecca and Medina)."  

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ نَبِيٌّ قَبْلِي إِلَّا حَذَّرَ أُمَّتَهُ الدَّجَّالَ وَإِنَّهُ فِيكُمْ أَيَّتُهَا الْأُمَّةُ وَإِنَّهُ يَطَأُ الْأَرْضَ كُلَّهَا غَيْرَ طَيْبَةَ هَذِهِ طَيْبَةُ»  

Allah named Medina as Tabba. (Using translation from Muslim 1385)   

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِنَّ اللهَ سَمَّى الْمَدِينَةَ طَابَةَ»  

I have been commanded (to migrate) to a town (Medina) which would overpower other towns. They (the people) call it Yathrib; its correct name is (in fact) Medina. It eliminates (bad) people just as a furnace removes the alloy of iron. (Using translation from Muslim 1382a)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أُمِرْتُ بِقَرْيَةٍ تَأْكُلُ الْقُرَى يَقُولُونَ يَثْرِبُ وَهِيَ الْمَدِينَةُ تَنْفِي النَّاسَ كَمَا يَنْفِي الْكِيرُ خَبَثَ الْحَدِيدِ  

A bedouin came to the Prophet ﷺ and gave a pledge of allegiance for embracing Islam. The next day he came with fever and said (to the Prophet ﷺ ), "Please cancel my pledge (of embracing Islam and of emigrating to Medina)." The Prophet ﷺ refused (that request) three times and said, "Medina is like a furnace, it expels out the impurities (bad persons) and selects the good ones and makes them perfect." (Using translation from Bukhārī 1883)   

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَبَايَعَهُ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ فَجَاءَ مِنَ الْغَدِ مَحْمُومًا فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «الْمَدِينَةُ كَالْكِيرِ تَنْفِي خَبَثَهَا وَيَنْصَعُ طِيبُهَا»  

I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Yemen will be conquered and some people will migrate (from Medina) and will urge their families, and those who will obey them to migrate (to Yemen) although Medina will be better for them; if they but knew. Sham will also be conquered and some people will migrate (from Medina) and will urge their families and those who will obey them, to migrate (to Sham) although Medina will be better for them; if they but knew. 'Iraq will be conquered and some people will migrate (from Medina) and will urge their families and those who will obey them to migrate (to 'Iraq) although Medina will be better for them; if they but knew." (Using translation from Bukhārī 1875)  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «تُفْتَحُ الْيَمَنُ فَيَأْتِي قَوْمٌ يَبُسُّون فَيَتَحَمَّلُونَ بِأَهْلِيهِمْ وَمَنْ أَطَاعَهُمْ وَالْمَدِينَةُ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ وَتُفْتَحُ الشَّامُ فَيَأْتِي قَوْمٌ يَبُسُّونَ فَيَتَحَمَّلُونَ بِأَهْلِيهِمْ وَمَنْ أَطَاعَهُمْ وَالْمَدِينَةُ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ وَتُفْتَحُ الْعِرَاقُ فَيَأْتِي قَوْمٌ يَبُسُّونَ فَيَتَحَمَّلُونَ بِأَهْلِيهِمْ وَمَنْ أَطَاعَهُمْ وَالْمَدِينَةُ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ»  

Yemen will be conquered and some people will go away (to that country) driving their camels and carrying their families on them and those who are under their authority, while Medina is better for them if they were to know it. Then Syria will be conquered and some people will go away driving their camels along with them and carrying their families with them and those who are under their authority, while Medina is better for theni if they were to know it. Thtn lraq will be conquered and some people will go away (to that country) driving their camels and carrying their families with them and those who are under their authority. while Medina is better for them if they were to know it. (Using translation from Muslim 1388b)  

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «تُفْتَحُ الْيَمَنُ فَيَجِيءُ قَوْمٌ يَبُسُّونَ فَيَتَحَمَّلُونَ بِأَهْلِيهِمْ وَمَنْ أَطَاعَهُمْ وَالْمَدِينَةُ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ ثُمَّ تُفْتَحُ الْعِرَاقُ فَيَجِيءُ قَوْمٌ يَبُسُّونَ فَيَتَحَمَّلُونَ بِأَهْلِيهِمْ وَمَنْ أَطَاعَهُمْ وَالْمَدِينَةُ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ ثُمَّ تُفْتَحُ الشَّامُ فَيَجِيءُ قَوْمٌ يَبُسُّونَ فَيَتَحَمَّلُونَ بِأَهْلِيهِمْ وَمَنْ أَطَاعَهُمْ وَالْمَدِينَةُ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ»  

[Machine] On the authority of Ibn Khallad, who was one of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ, he said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever frightens the people of Madinah, Allah will frighten him, and upon him will be the curse of Allah, the angels, and all the people. No compensation or restitution will be accepted from him."  

عَنِ ابْنِ خَلَّادٍ وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ أَخَافَ أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ أَخَافُهُ اللهُ وَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللهِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ لَا يُقْبَلُ مِنْهُ صَرْفٌ وَلَا عَدْلٌ»  

[Machine] He informed him that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever oppresses the people of Medina, Allah will make him fear, and he will be under the curse of Allah, the angels, and all the people. No intercession or ransom will be accepted from him."  

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ أَخَافَ أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ ظَالِمًا لَهُمْ أَخَافُهُ اللهُ وَكَانَتْ عَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللهِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ لَا يُقْبَلُ مِنْهُ صَرْفٌ وَلَا عَدْلٌ»  

“Whoever wishes bad upon the people of Al-Madinah, Allah will cause him to melt as salt melts in water.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3114)  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ أَرَادَ أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ بِسُوءٍ أَذَابَهُ اللهُ كَمَا يَذُوبُ الْمِلْحُ فِي الْمَاءِ»  

“Whoever wishes bad upon the people of Al-Madinah, Allah will cause him to melt as salt melts in water.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3114)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ أَرَادَ أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ بِسُوءٍ أَذَابَهُ اللهُ كَمَا يَذُوبُ الْمِلْحُ فِي الْمَاءِ»  

“Whoever wishes bad upon the people of Al-Madinah, Allah will cause him to melt as salt melts in water.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3114)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ أَرَادَ أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ بِسُوءٍ أَذَابَهُ اللهُ كَمَا يَذُوبُ الْمِلْحُ فِي الْمَاءِ  

We went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and when we were in the Harrah, at as-Suqya (a halting place between Makkah and Madinah) which belonged to Saʿd bin Abi Waqqas, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ʿBring me some water for wudoo’.” When he had done wudoo he stood up and turned to face the qiblah, then he said takbeer, then he said: O Allah, Ibrahim was Your slave and Your close friend; he prayed for blessing for the people of Makkah. I am Muhammad, Your slave and Your Messenger; I am praying to You for the people of Madinah - bless their mudd and saʿ [weights and measures] as You blessed the people of Makkah, double the blessing You bestowed upon the people of Makkah, a twofold blessing.” (Using translation from Aḥmad 936)   

خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِالْحَرَّةِ بِالسُّقْيَا الَّتِي كَانَتْ لِسَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «ائْتُونِي بِوَضُوءٍ فَتَوَضَّأَ ثُمَّ قَامَ فَاسْتَقْبَلَ الْقِبْلَةَ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ إِنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ كَانَ عَبْدَكَ وَخَلِيلَكَ دَعَا لِأَهْلِ مَكَّةَ بِالْبَرَكَةِ وَأنا مُحَمَّدٌ عَبْدُكَ وَرَسُولُكَ أَدْعُوكَ لِأَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ أَنْ تَبَارَكَ لَهُمْ فِي مُدِّهِمْ وَصَاعِهِمْ مِثْلَيْ مَا بَارَكْتَ لِأَهْلِ مَكَّةَ مَعَ الْبَرَكَةِ بَرَكَتَيْنِ» أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَهُمْ فِي مِكْيَالِهِمْ وَبَارِكْ لَهُمْ فِي صَاعِهِمْ وَفِي مُدِّهِمْ» يَعْنِي أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ  

The Prophet ﷺ said, "O Allah! Make us love Medina as You made us love Mecca, or more, and transfer the fever that is in it, to Al-Juhfa. O Allah! Bless our Mudd and our Sam' (kinds of measures). (Using translation from Bukhārī 6372)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «اللهُمَّ حَبِّبْ إِلَيْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ كَمَا حَبَّبْتَ إِلَيْنَا مَكَّةَ أَوْ أَشَدَّ اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي صَاعِهَا وَمُدِّهَا وَانْقُلْ وَبَاءَهَا إِلَى مَهِيعَةَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah PBUH looked at the sky and said, "O Allah, make Medina beloved to us as You have made Mecca beloved to us, or even more beloved. O Allah, bless us in its measures, spans, and inhabitants, and transfer its disease to Mahiya, which is Al-Juhfah."  

نَظَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ حَبِّبْ إِلَيْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ كَمَا حَبَّبْتَ إِلَيْنَا مَكَّةَ أَوْ أَشَدَّ اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي صَاعِهَا وَمُدِّهَا وَانْقُلْ وَبَاءَهَا إِلَى مَهِيعَةَ وَهِيَ الْجُحْفَةُ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The city will not be entered by the plague and the false messiah."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «الْمَدِينَةُ لَا يَدْخُلُهَا الطَّاعُونُ وَلَا الدَّجَّالُ»  

There will be no land which would not be covered by the Dajjal but Mecca and Medina, and there would no passage out of the passages leading to them which would not be guarded by angels arranged in rows. Then he (the Dajjal) would appear in a barren place adjacent to Medina and it would rock three times that every unbeliever and hypocrite would get out of it towards him. (Using translation from Muslim 2943a)   

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَيْسَ بَلَدٌ إِلَّا سَيَطَؤُهُ الدَّجَّالُ إِلَّا الْمَدِينَةَ وَمَكَّةَ عَلَى كُلِّ نَقْبٍ مِنْ أَنْقَابِ الْمَدِينَةِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ صَافِّينَ يَحْرُسُونَهَا فَيَنْزِلُ السَّبَخَةَ فَتَرْجُفُ الْمَدِينَةُ ثَلَاثَ رَجَفَاتٍ يَخْرُجُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْهَا كُلُّ مُنَافِقٍ وَكَافِرٍ»  

He would come but would not be allowed to enter the mountain passes to Medina. So he will alight at some of the barren tracts near Medina, and a person who would be the best of men or one from amongst the best of men would say to him: I bear testimony to the fact that you are Dajjal about whom Messenger of Allah ﷺ had informed us. The Dajjal would say: What is your opinion if I kill this (person), then I bring him back to life; even then will you harbour doubt in this matter? They would say: No. He would then kill (the man) and then bring him back to life. When he would bring that person to life, he would say: By Allah, I had no better proof of the fact (that you are a Dajjal) than at the present time (that you are actually so). The Dajjal would then make an attempt to kill him (again) but he would not be able to do that. Abu Ishaq reported that it was said: That person would be Khadir (Allah be pleased with him). (Using translation from Muslim 2938a)  

حَدَّثَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَدِيثًا طَوِيلًا عَنِ الدَّجَّالِ قَالَ فَكَانَ فِيمَا حَدَّثَنَا قَالَ يَأْتِي وَهُوَ مُحَرَّمٌ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ نِقَابَ الْمَدِينَةِ فَيَنْتَهِي إِلَى بَعْضِ السِّبَاخِ الَّتِي تَلِي الْمَدِينَةَ فَيَخْرُجُ إِلَيْهِ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَعْنِي رَجُلًا هُوَ خَيْرُ النَّاسِ أَوْ مِنْ خَيْرِ النَّاسِ فَيَقُولُ لَهُ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ الدَّجَّالُ الَّذِي حَدَّثَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَدِيثَهُ فَيَقُولُ الدَّجَّالُ أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ قَتَلْتُ هَذَا وَأَحْيَيْتُهُ أَتَشُكُّونَ فِي الْأَمْرِ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ لَا قَالَ فَيَقْتُلُهُ ثُمَّ يُحْيِيهِ فَيَقُولُ حِينَ يُحْيِيهِ وَاللهِ مَا كُنْتُ فِيكَ قَطُّ أَشَدَّ بَصِيرَةً مِنِّي الْآنَ فَيُرِيدُ الدَّجَّالُ أَنْ يَقْتُلَهُ فَلَا يُسَلَّطُ عَلَيْهِ  

[Machine] We went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said, "O Allah, indeed Ibrahim made Makkah sacred and declared it as a sanctuary. And I have made Al-Madinah sacred within its boundaries, that no bloodshed should occur within it, no weapons be carried for fighting, and no trees be cut except for fodder. O Allah, bless our city, O Allah, bless our Sa' and Mud. O Allah, bless our Medina, O Allah, bless our Sa' and Mud. O Allah, bless our city, O Allah, bless our Sa' and Mud. O Allah, bless our Medina, O Allah, bless our Sa' and Mud. O Allah, make my two blessings accompany Your blessing, and by the One in whose hand is my soul, there is no valley or mountain range in Al-Madinah except that it has two angels that guard it."  

خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ إِنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَرَّمَ مَكَّةَ فَجَعَلَهَا حَرَمًا وَإِنِّي حَرَّمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ حَرَامًا مَا بَيْنَ مَأْزِمَيْهَا أَنْ لَا يُهْرَاقَ فِيهَا دَمٌ وَلَا يُحْمَلُ فِيهَا سِلَاحٌ لِقِتَالٍ وَلَا تُخْبَطُ فِيهَا شَجَرَةٌ إِلَّا لِعَلْفٍ اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي مَدِينَتِنَا اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي صَاعِنَا اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي مُدِّنَا اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي صَاعِنَا اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي مُدِّنَا اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي مَدِينَتِنَا اللهُمَّ اجْعَلْ مَعَ الْبَرَكَةِ بَرَكَتَيْنِ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ مِنْ شِعْبٍ وَلَا نَقْبٍ إِلَّا عَلَيْهِ مَلَكَانِ يَحْرُسَانِهَا»  

It was said to ‘Ali ؓ : “Did your Messenger say anything to you only that was not for the people in general?” He said: “The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not say anything to us only that he did not say to the people, except something in the sheath of this sword of mine. He took out a document on which there was something about the ages of camels [for zakah] and in it was said: ʿMadinah is sacred, the area between Thawr and ‘A’ir. Whoever commits an offence or gives refuge to an offender, upon him will be the curse of Allah, the angels and all the people, and on the Day of Resurrection Allah will not accept any nafl or obligatory act of worship from him. Protection given by any Muslim is binding upon all of them. Whoever transgresses protection given by a Muslim, upon him be the curse of Allah, the angels and all the people, and on the Day of Resurrection Allah will not accept any nafl or obligatory act of worship from him. Whoever takes people as mawla without the permission of the ones who set him free, upon him be the curse of Allah, the angels and all the people, and on the Day of Resurrection Allah will not accept any nafl or obligatory act of worship from him.ʿ The word mawla refers to the one who manumits a slave, who has a right to inherit ex-slave. Changing one’s mawla means giving the right of inheritance to the new mawla. (Using translation from Aḥmad 1298)   

قِيلَ لِعَلِيٍّ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ خَصَّكُمْ بِشَيْءٍ دُونَ النَّاسِ عَامَّةً قَالَ مَا خَصَّنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِشَيْءٍ لَمْ يَخُصَّ النَّاسَ لَيْسَ شَيْئًا فِي قِرَابِ سَيْفِي هَذَا فَأَخَذَ صَحِيفَةً فِيهَا شَيْءٌ مِنْ أَسْنَانِ الْإِبِلِ وَفِيهَا «إِنَّ الْمَدِينَةَ حَرَمٌ مَا بَيْنَ ثَوْرٍ إِلَى عِيرٍ فَمَنْ أَحْدَثَ فِيهَا حَدَثًا أَوْ آوَى مُحْدِثًا كَانَ عَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللهِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ لَا يُقْبَلُ مِنْهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ صَرْفٌ وَلَا عَدْلٌ وَذِمَّةُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَاحِدَةٌ فَمَنْ أَخْفَرَ مُسْلِمًا فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللهِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ لَا يُقْبَلُ مِنْهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ صَرْفٌ وَلَا عَدْلٌ»  

We have nothing except the Book of Allah, may He be exalted, and this document from the Prophet ﷺ. Madinah is a sanctuary from ʿAʿir to Thawr; whoever commits an offence in it or gives refuge to an offender, may the curse of Allah, the angels and all the people be upon him and no obligatory or nafl act of worship will be accepted from him.ʿ And he said: ʿProtection given by any Muslim is binding upon all of them. Whoever transgresses protection given by a Muslim, upon him be the curse of Allah, the angels and all the people, and Allah will not accept from him any nafl or obligatory act of worship. Whoever takes people as mawla without the permission of the ones who set him free, upon him be the curse of Allah, the angels and all the people, and Allah will not accept from him any nafl or obligatory act of worship.” (Using translation from Aḥmad 1037)  

مَا عِنْدَنَا شَيْءٌ إِلَّا كِتَابُ اللهِ وَهَذِهِ الصَّحِيفَةُ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «الْمَدِينَةُ حَرَمٌ مَا بَيْنَ عِيرٍ إِلَى ثَوْرٍ مَنْ أَحْدَثَ فِيهَا حَدَثًا أَوْ آوَى مُحْدِثًا فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللهِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ لَا يُقْبَلُ مِنْهُ صَرْفٌ وَلَا عَدْلٌ ذِمَّةُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَاحِدَةٌ فَمَنْ أَخْفَرَ مُسْلِمًا فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللهِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ لَا يُقْبَلُ مِنْهُ صَرْفٌ وَلَا عَدْلٌ وَمَنْ وَلَّى قَوْمًا بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِ مَوَالِيهِ فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللهِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ لَا يُقْبَلُ مِنْهُ صَرْفٌ وَلَا عَدْلٌ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "No one leaves Medina desiring to be away from it except that Allah will replace it with something better for him, and no one remains patient in it and endures its hardships until he dies in it, except that I will be a witness for him or an intercessor for him on the Day of Resurrection. And the space between its two lava fields is made sacred, so no one should cut its trees or hunt its game. And no one from the people of Medina intends evil except that Allah will melt him in the fire like the melting of lead or the melting of salt in water."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا يَخْرُجُ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ رَاغِبًا عَنْهَا إِلَّا أَبْدَلَهَا اللهُ خَيْرًا مِنْهُ وَلَا يَثْبُتُ فِيهَا أَحَدٌ يَصْبِرُ عَلَى جَهْدِهَا وَشِدَّتِهَا حَتَّى يَمُوتَ فِيهَا إِلَّا كُنْتُ لَهُ شَهِيدًا أَوْ شَفِيعًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَحَرَّمَ مَا بَيْنَ لَابَتَيْهَا أَنْ يُقْطَعَ عِضَاهُهَا أَوْ يُقْتَلَ صَيْدُهَا وَلَا يُرِيدُ أَحَدٌ أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ بِسُوءٍ إِلَّا أَذَابَهُ اللهُ فِي النَّارِ ذَوْبَ الرَّصَاصِ أَوْ ذَوْبَ الْمِلْحِ فِي الْمَاءِ»  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "No one endures the hardships of Medina and its surroundings and dies except that I will intercede for him or he will be a martyr on the Day of Resurrection, if he is a Muslim."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَا يَصْبِرُ أَحَدٌ عَلَى جَهْدِ الْمَدِينَةِ وَلَأْوَائِهَا فَيَمُوتُ إِلَّا كُنْتُ لَهُ شَفِيعًا أَوْ شَهِيدًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ إِذَا كَانَ مُسْلِمًا»  

Abu Abd al-Rahmin, I have decided to leave (Medina) for the time is hard for us, whereupon Abdullah said to her: Stay here, foolish lady, for I have heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: For one who shows endurance on the hardships and rigour of it (of Medina) I would be an intercessor or a witness on his behalf on the Day of Resurrection. (Using translation from Muslim 1377b)  

إِنِّي أُرِيدُ الْخُرُوجَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ اشْتَدَّ عَلَيْنَا الزَّمَانُ فَقَالَ لَهَا عَبْدُ اللهِ اقْعُدِي لَكَاعِ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَا يَصْبِرُ عَلَى لَأْوَائِهَا وَشِدَّتِهَا أَحَدٌ إِلَّا كُنْتُ لَهُ شَهِيدًا أَوْ شَفِيعًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ»  

[Machine] While he was sitting with Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib, the messenger of Nafi' ibn Jubayr came to him and said, "Your cousin, Asma bint 'Umais, is sending you greetings and asks, 'How is the speech that I informed you about?'". Sa'id said to him, "Inform her that Asma bint 'Umais informed me that she heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'No one endures the hardship and severity of Medina except that I will be a witness or an intercessor for him on the Day of Judgment."  

أَنَّهُ بَيْنَا هُوَ جَالِسٌ مَعَ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ إِذْ جَاءَهُ رَسُولُ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ يَقُولُ ابْنُ خَالَتِكَ يَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامَ وَيَقُولُ كَيْفَ الْحَدِيثُ الَّذِي أَخْبَرْتِنِي عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ عُمَيْسٍ؟ قَالَ سَعِيدٌ أَخْبِرْهُ أَنَّ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتَ عُمَيْسٍ أَخْبَرْتِنِي أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَا يَصْبِرُ عَلَى لَأْوَاءِ الْمَدِينَةِ وَشِدَّتِهَا أَحَدٌ إِلَّا كُنْتُ لَهُ شَهِيدًا أَوْ شَفِيعًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited damaging or cutting down trees between the two landmarks of Al-Madinah.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ «حَرَّمَ مَا بَيْنَ لَابَتَيِ الْمَدِينَةِ أَنْ يُعْضَدَ شَجَرُهَا أَوْ يُخْبَطَ»  

Ibrahim declared Mecca as sacred; I declare Medina, that between the two mountains, as inviolable. No tree should be lopped and no game is to be molested. (Using translation from Muslim 1362)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَرَّمَ بَيْتَ اللهِ وَأَمَّنَهُ وَإِنِّي حَرَّمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ مَا بَيْنَ لَابَتَيْهَا لَا يُصْطَادُ صَيْدُهَا وَلَا يُقْطَعُ عِضَاهَا»  

[Machine] That the Sumeitah woman from the tribe of Banu Layth ibn Bakr was in the chamber of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said, "I heard her telling Safiyyah bint Abi Ubayd that she heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Whoever among you is able to die in Medina, let him die there, for I will intercede for him or testify for him.'"  

أَنَّ الصُّمَيْتَةَ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ بَنِي لَيْثِ بْنِ بَكْرٍ كَانَتْ فِي حِجْرِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ سَمِعْتُهَا تُحَدِّثُ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتَ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَمُوتَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَلْيَمُتْ بِهَا؛ فَإِنِّي أَشْفَعُ لَهُ أَوْ أَشْهَدُ لَهُ»  

If I saw deers grazing in Medina, I would not chase them, for Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "(Medina) is a sanctuary between its two mountains." (Using translation from Bukhārī 1873)  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ لَوْ رَأَيْتُ الظِّبَاءَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ تَرْتَعُ مَا ذَعَرْتُهَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَا بَيْنَ لَابَتَيْهَا حَرَامٌ»  

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ who said, "The pulpits of my pulpit are stations in Paradise."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «قَوَائِمُ مِنْبَرِي رَوَاتِبُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "My pulpit is located on a portion of the Paradise's turf."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مِنْبَرِي هَذَا عَلَى تُرْعَةٍ مِنْ تُرَعِ الْجَنَّةِ»  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Between my house and the pulpit there is a garden of the gardens of Paradise." (Using translation from Bukhārī 1195)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَا بَيْنَ بَيْتِي وَمِنْبَرِي رَوْضَةٌ مِنْ رِيَاضِ الْجَنَّةِ»  

[Machine] "That the Prophet ﷺ said, 'Between my house and my pulpit is a garden from the gardens of paradise.' And in the narration of Al-Harith, 'Between my grave and my pulpit.'"  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «مَا بَيْنَ بَيْتِي وَمِنْبَرِي رَوْضَةٌ مِنْ رِيَاضِ الْجَنَّةِ» وَفِي حَدِيثِ الْحَارِثِ «مَا بَيْنَ قَبْرِي وَمِنْبَرِي»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "They hit the livers of camels seeking knowledge, but they do not find a scholar more knowledgeable than the scholar of Madinah." Abu Abdur-Rahman said, "This is a mistake, and the correct version is from Abu Zubair from Abu Saleh."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَضْرِبُونَ أَكْبَادَ الْإِبِلِ يَطْلُبُونَ الْعِلْمَ فَلَا يَجِدُونَ عَالِمًا أَعْلَمَ مِنْ عَالِمِ الْمَدِينَةِ» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ هَذَا خَطَأٌ وَالصَّوَابُ أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ
