Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الأَحْوَلُ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏" ‏ الْمَدِينَةُ حَرَمٌ، مِنْ كَذَا إِلَى كَذَا، لاَ يُقْطَعُ شَجَرُهَا، وَلاَ يُحْدَثُ فِيهَا حَدَثٌ، مَنْ أَحْدَثَ حَدَثًا فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ وَالْمَلاَئِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ ‏"‏‏.‏

Translation

Abu al-Numan narrated to us; Thabit ibn Yazid narrated to us; Asim, Abu Abd al-Rahman al-Ahwal, narrated to us, from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), from the Prophet, who said: Medina is a sanctuary from this point to that one. Its trees must not be cut, and no offense may be introduced there. Whoever introduces an offense there, upon him is the curse of Allah, the angels, and all people.
