أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو خَلِيفَةَ حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ
«يَأْتِي عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ يَدْعُو الرَّجُلُ ابْنَ عَمِّهِ وَقَرِيبِهِ هَلُمَّ إِلَى الرَّخَاءِ هَلُمَّ إِلَى الرَّخَاءِ وَالْمَدِينَةُ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا يَخْرُجُ أَحَدٌ مِنْهَا رَغْبَةً عَنْهَا إِلَّا أَخْلَفَ اللَّهُ فِيهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهُ أَلَا إِنَّ الْمَدِينَةَ كَالْكِيرِ تُخْرِجُ الْخَبَثَ وَلَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى تَنْفِيَ الْمَدِينَةُ شِرَارَهَا كَمَا يَنْفِي الْكِيرُ خَبَثَ الْحَدِيدِ»

✧ A time will come upon people when a man will call his cousin and his relative: Come to ease, come to ease! Yet al-Madinah is better for them, if they only knew. By the One in whose hand is my soul, no one leaves it out of aversion for it except that Allah will leave behind in it one better than him. Indeed, al-Madinah is like a bellows: it expels the impurity. And the Hour will not occur until al-Madinah expels its wicked ones just as the bellows expel the dross of iron.
