Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, "I have made Medina a sanctuary between its two (Harrat) mountains." The Prophet 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."
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle 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.
Narrated Abu Humaid:
We came with the Prophet from Tabuk, and when we reached near Medina, the Prophet said, "This is Tabah."
Narrated Abu Huraira:
If I saw deers grazing in Medina, I would not chase them, for Allah's Apostle said, "(Medina) is a sanctuary between its two mountains."
Narrated Abu Huraira:
I heard Allah's Apostle 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."
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "There are angels guarding the entrances (or roads)
of Medina, neither plague nor Ad-Dajjal will be able to enter it."
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet 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)."
Narrated 'Aisha:
When Allah's Apostle 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 good-smelling 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 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 Apostle 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 most unhealthy of Allah's lands, and the valley of Bathan
(the valley of Medina) used to flow with impure colored water.
