(1) Chapter: Haram (sanctuary) of Al-Madina
1. Narrated Anas:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"Medina is a sanctuary from that place to that. Its trees should not be
cut and no heresy should be innovated nor any sin should be committed in it,
and whoever innovates in it an heresy or commits sins (bad deeds), then he will
incur the curse of Allah, the angels, and all the people." (See Hadith No.
409, Vol 9)
2. Narrated Anas:
The Prophet (ﷺ) came to Medina
and ordered a mosque to be built and said, "O Bani Najjar! Suggest to me
the price (of your land)." They said, "We do not want its price except
from Allah" (i.e. they wished for a reward from Allah for giving up their
land freely). So, the Prophet (ﷺ) ordered the
graves of the pagans to be dug out and the land to be leveled, and the
date-palm trees to be cut down. The cut datepalms were fixed in the direction
of the Qibla of the mosque.
3. Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "I
have made Medina a sanctuary between its two (Harrat) mountains." The
Prophet (ﷺ) went to the tribe of Bani Haritha and said (to them), "I
see that you have gone out of the sanctuary," but looking around, he
added, "No, you are inside the sanctuary."
4. Narrated `Ali:
We have nothing except the Book of Allah and this written
paper from the Prophet (wherein is written:) Medina is a sanctuary from the
'Air Mountain to such and such a place, and whoever innovates in it an heresy
or commits a sin, or gives shelter to such an innovator in it will incur the
curse of Allah, the angels, and all the people, none of his compulsory or
optional good deeds of worship will be accepted. And the asylum (of protection)
granted by any Muslim is to be secured (respected) by all the other Muslims;
and whoever betrays a Muslim in this respect incurs the curse of Allah, the
angels, and all the people, and none of his compulsory or optional good deeds
of worship will be accepted, and whoever (freed slave) befriends (take as
masters) other than his manumitters without their permission incurs the curse
of Allah, the angels, and all the people, and none of his compulsory or
optional good deeds of worship will be accepted.
(2) Chapter: Superiority of Al-Madina. It expels (evil)
persons
5. Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "I
was ordered to migrate to a town which will swallow (conquer) other towns and
is called Yathrib and that is Medina, and it turns out (bad) persons as a
furnace removes the impurities of iron.

near Medina, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "This is Tabah."
(4)Chapter: The two mountains of Al-Madina

If I saw deers grazing in Medina, I would not chase them, for
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "(Medina) is a sanctuary between its two
mountains."
(5) Chapter: The one who avoids living in Al-Madina?
8. Narrated Abu Huraira:
I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying,
"The people will leave Medina in spite of the best state it will have, and
none except the wild birds and the beasts of prey will live in it, and the last
persons who will die will be two shepherds from the tribe of Muzaina, who will
be driving their sheep towards Medina, but will find nobody in it, and when
they reach the valley of Thaniyat-al-Wada`, they will fall down on their faces
dead."
9. Narrated Sufyan b. Abu Zuhair:
I heard Allah's Messenger (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."
(6) Chapter: Iman (Belief) returns and goes back to Al-Madina

(destroyed) like the salt is dissolved in water."

Once the Prophet (ﷺ) stood at the
top of a (looked out from upon one) castle amongst the castles (or the high
buildings) of Medina and said, "Do you see what I see? (No doubt) I see
the spots where afflictions will take place among your houses (and these
afflictions will be) as numerous as the spots where raindrops fall."
(9) Chapter: Ad-Dajjal will not be able to enter Al-Madina
13. Narrated Abu Bakra:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The
terror caused by Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal will not enter Medina and at that time
Medina will have seven gates and there will be two angels at each gate guarding
them."
14. Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said,
"There are angels guarding the entrances (or roads) of Medina, neither
plague nor Ad-Dajjal will be able to enter it."
15. Narrated Anas bin Malik:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"There will be no town which Ad-Dajjal will not enter except Mecca and
Medina, and there will be no entrance (road) (of both Mecca and Medina) but the
angels will be standing in rows guarding it against him, and then Medina will
shake with its inhabitants thrice (i.e. three earthquakes will take place) and
Allah will expel all the non-believers and the hypocrites from it."
16. Narrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) told us a long
narrative about Ad-Dajjal, and among the many things he mentioned, was his
saying, "Ad-Dajjal will come and it will be forbidden for him to pass
through the entrances of Medina. He will land in some of the salty barren areas
(outside) Medina; on that day the best man or one of the best men will come up
to him and say, 'I testify that you are the same Dajjal whose description was
given to us by Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) .' Ad-Dajjal
will say to the people, 'If I kill this man and bring him back to life again,
will you doubt my claim?' They will say, 'No.' Then Ad-Dajjal will kill that
man and bring him back to life. That man will say, 'Now I know your reality
better than before.' Ad-Dajjal will say, 'I want to kill him but I cannot.'
"
17. Narrated Jabir:
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."
18. Narrated Zaid bin Thabit:
When the Prophet (ﷺ) went out for
(the battle of) Uhud, some of his companions (hypocrites) returned (home). A
party of the believers remarked that they would kill those (hypocrites) who had
returned, but another party said that they would not kill them. So, this Divine
Inspiration was revealed: "Then what is the matter with you that you are
divided into two parties concerning the hypocrites." (4.88) The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Medina expels the bad persons from it, as fire
expels the impurities of iron."
(10)Chapter:
19. Narrated Anas:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "O
Allah! Bestow on Medina twice the blessings You bestowed on Mecca."
20. Narrated Anas:
Whenever the Prophet (ﷺ) returned from a
journey and observed the walls of Medina, he would make his Mount go fast, and
if he was on an animal (i.e. a horse), he would make it gallop because of his
love for Medina.
(11) Chapter: The dislike of the Prophet (saws) that
Al-Madina should be vacated
21. Narrated Anas:
(The people of) Bani Salama intended to shift near the mosque
(of the Prophet) but Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) disliked to see
Medina vacated and said, "O the people of Bani Salama! Don't you think
that you will be rewarded for your footsteps which you take towards the
mosque?" So, they stayed at their old places.
(12) Chapter:
22. Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"There is a garden from the gardens of Paradise between my house and my
pulpit, and my pulpit is on my Lake Fount (Al-Kauthar).
23. Narrated `Aisha:
When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) reached Medina,
Abu Bakr and Bilal became ill. When Abu Bakr's fever got worse, he would recite
(this poetic verse): "Everybody is staying alive with his People, yet
Death is nearer to him than His shoe laces." And Bilal, when his fever
deserted him, would recite: "Would that I could stay overnight in A valley
wherein I would be Surrounded by Idhkhir and Jalil (kinds of goodsmelling
grass). Would that one day I could Drink the water of the Majanna, and Would
that (The two mountains) Shama and Tafil would appear to me!" The Prophet
(ﷺ) said, "O Allah! Curse Shaiba bin Rabi`a and `Utba bin
Rabi`a and Umaiya bin Khalaf as they turned us out of our land to the land of
epidemics." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) then said,
"O Allah! Make us love Medina as we love Mecca or even more than that. O
Allah! Give blessings in our Sa and our Mudd (measures symbolizing food) and
make the climate of Medina suitable for us, and divert its fever towards Aljuhfa."
Aisha added: When we reached Medina, it was the unhealthiest of Allah's lands,
and the valley of Bathan (the valley of Medina) used to flow with impure
colored water.
24. Narrated Zaid bin Aslam from his father:
`Umar said, O Allah! Grant me martyrdom in Your cause, and
let my death be in the city of Your Apostle."
