A bedouin gave the Pledge of allegiance to Messenger of Allah ﷺ for Islam and the bedouin got a fever where upon he said to the Prophet ﷺ "Cancel my Pledge." But the Prophet ﷺ refused. He came to him (again) saying, "Cancel my Pledge.' But the Prophet ﷺ refused. Then (the bedouin) left (Medina). Allah's Apostle said: "Medina is like a pair of bellows (furnace): It expels its impurities and brightens and clears its good."  

أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا بَايَعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ فَأَصَابَهُ وَعْكٌ فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى فَخَرَجَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةُ كَالْكِيرِ تَنْفِي خَبَثَهَا وَيَنْصَعُ طِيبُهَا

أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا بَايَعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ فَأَصَابَ الأَعْرَابِيَّ وَعْكٌ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَأَتَى الأَعْرَابِيُّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى فَخَرَجَ الأَعْرَابِيُّ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّمَا الْمَدِينَةُ كَالْكِيرِ تَنْفِي خَبَثَهَا وَيَنْصَعُ طِيبُهَا  

A bedouin gave the Pledge of allegiance for embracing Islam to Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and then he got an attack of fever in Medina and came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ: and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Cancel my pledge." Messenger of Allah ﷺ refused to do so. The bedouin came to him again and said, "Cancel my pledge," but he refused again, and then again, the bedouin came to him and said, "Cancel my pledge," and Messenger of Allah ﷺ refused. The bedouin finally went away, and Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Medina is like a pair of bellows (furnace), it expels its impurities while it brightens and clears its good.'  

أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا بَايَعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ فَأَصَابَ الأَعْرَابِيَّ وَعْكٌ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَجَاءَ الأَعْرَابِيُّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى فَخَرَجَ الأَعْرَابِيُّ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّمَا الْمَدِينَةُ كَالْكِيرِ تَنْفِي خَبَثَهَا وَيَنْصَعُ طِيبُهَا  

Muhammad, cancel my oath of allegiance. But Messenger of Allah ﷺ refused it. He again came and said: Cancel my oath of allegiance. But he (the Holy Prophet) refused it. He again came to him and said: Cancel my oath of allegiance, but he refused. The desert Arab, however, went away (cancelling the allegiance himself). Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Medina is like a furnace which drives away its impurity and purifies what is good.  

أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا بَايَعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَصَابَ الأَعْرَابِيَّ وَعَكٌ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى فَخَرَجَ الأَعْرَابِيُّ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّمَا الْمَدِينَةُ كَالْكِيرِ تَنْفِي خَبَثَهَا وَيَنْصَعُ طَيِّبُهَا  

that a Bedouin gave the pledge to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for Islam, then he was afflicted by the sickness in Al-Madinah. So the Bedouin went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: "Take back my pledge." But the Messenger of Allah ﷺ refused. Then the Bedouin left and came back and said: "Take back my pledge," and he refused. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Al-Madinah is but like bellows, it expels its filth and purifies its good."  

أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا بَايَعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ فَأَصَابَهُ وَعَكٌ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَجَاءَ الأَعْرَابِيُّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَخَرَجَ الأَعْرَابِيُّ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى فَخَرَجَ الأَعْرَابِيُّ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّمَا الْمَدِينَةُ كَالْكِيرِ تَنْفِي خَبَثَهَا وَتُنَصِّعُ طَيِّبَهَا وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ  

Yahya related to me from Malik from Muhammad ibn al-Munkadir from Jabir ibn Abdullah that a Bedouin took an oath of allegiance in Islam with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. A fever befell the Bedouin at Madina. He came to the Messenger of Allah, and said, "Messenger of Allah, release me from my pledge." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ refused. Then he came to him again and said, "Release me from my pledge." The Messenger of Allah may Allah bless him and grant him peace, refused. Then he came again and said, "Release me from my pledge." He refused. Then he came again and said, "Release me from my pledge." He refused. The Bedouin left and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Madina is like the blacksmith's furnace. It removes the impurities and purifies the good."  

أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا بَايَعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ فَأَصَابَ الأَعْرَابِيَّ وَعْكٌ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي بَيْعَتِي فَأَبَى فَخَرَجَ الأَعْرَابِيُّ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّمَا الْمَدِينَةُ كَالْكِيرِ تَنْفِي خَبَثَهَا وَيَنْصَعُ طِيبُهَا  

[Machine] I heard Jabir ibn Abdullah say, "An Arab came to the Prophet ﷺ and pledged allegiance to him on Islam. He fell ill, so he came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, 'Release me from my pledge.' But the Prophet ﷺ refused. He came to him again and said, 'Release me from my pledge.' But the Prophet ﷺ refused. They asked about him and they were told that he had left. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Medina is like a furnace that removes its impurities and purifies its good.'"  

سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ يَقُولُ جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَبَايَعَهُ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ فَوُعِكَ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي فَأَبَى ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ فَقَالَ أَقِلْنِي فَأَبَى فَسَأَلَ عَنْهُ فَقَالُوا خَرَجَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ الْمَدِينَةَ كَالْكِيرِ تَنْفِي خَبَثَهَا وَتَنْصَعُ طَيِّبَهَا  

[Machine] "That a Bedouin pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on Islam and then the Bedouin became sick in the city. So, the Bedouin left and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Indeed, the city is like a fever that expels its impurities and leaves behind what is pure.'"  

أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا بَايَعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ فَأَصَابَ الْأَعْرَابِيَّ وَعْكٌ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَخَرَجَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّمَا الْمَدِينَةُ كَالْكِيرِ تَنْفِي خَبَثَهَا وَيَنْصَعُ طَيِّبُهَا»  

[Machine] "A Bedouin pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for Islam, and the Bedouin contracted a disease in Medina. The Bedouin left and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Indeed, Medina is like a furnace, it drives away its impurities and refines its good.'"
