Chapter 97: The virtue of the Masjid of Quba', and the virtue of praying therein and visiting it
Ibn 'Umar had narrated this hadith through another chain of transmitters.

Chapter 86: Encouragement to live in Al-Madinah and to be patient on bearing its distress and hardships
For one among my Ummah who shows endurance against the hardships and rigours of Medina, I would be an intercessor or a witness on his behalf on the Day of Resurrection.
Chapter 87: Al-Madinah is protected against the plague and the Dajjal entering it
Dajjal will come from the eastern side with the intention of attacking Medina until he will get down behind Uhud. Then the angels will turn his face towards Syria and there he will perish.
Chapter 88: Al-Madinah eliminates its Dross and it is also called Tabah, and Taibah
Muhammad, cancel my oath of allegiance. But Allah's Messenger (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 Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: Medina is like a furnace which drives away its impurity and purifies what is good.
It is Taiba, thereby meaning Medina. It drives away impurity just as fire removes the impurity of silver.
Chapter 89: The prohibition of wishing ill towards the people of Al-Madinah, and that the one who wishes them ill will be caused to melt by Allah
He who intends to do harm to the people of Medina, Allah would efface him just as water dissolves salt.
" Sudden attack or harm."
Chapter 91: The Prophet saws foretold that the people will abandon Al-Madinah when it is the best it ever was
Its inhabitants will abandon it, whereas it is good for them and it will become the haunt of beasts and birds. (Imam Muslim said that Abu Safwan, one of the narrators whose name was 'Abdullah b. 'Abd al-Malik, was an orphan and I bn juraij took him under his care for ten years.)
Chapter 94: The virtue of praying in the Masajid of Makkah and Al-Madinah
A prayer in my mosque is a thousand times more excellent than a prayer in any other mosque, except Masjid al-Haram (Mosque of the Ka'ba).
Prayer in my mosque is more excellent than a thousand prayers observed in other mosques except the Masjid al- Haram.
I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying like this.

" Just as a furance removes impurity," but no mention is made of iron.
Chapter 89: The prohibition of wishing ill towards the people of Al-Madinah, and that the one who wishes them ill will be caused to melt by Allah
He who intends to do harm to its people (he meant Medina), Allah would efface him as salt is dissolved in water. Ibn Hatim (one of the narrators) substituted the word" harm" for" mischief".
Chapter 94: The virtue of praying in the Masajid of Makkah and Al-Madinah
This hadith has been narrated by Yabya b. Sa'id with the same chain of transmitters.
In case Allah cures me I will certainly go and observe prayer in Bait al-Maqdis. She recovered and so she made preparations to go out (to that place). She came to Maimuna. the wife of Allah's Apostle (ﷺ). and after greeting her she informed her about it, whereupon she said: Stay here. and eat the provision (which you had made) and observe prayer In the mosque of the Messenger (ﷺ). for I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) say: Prayer In it is better than a thousand prayers observed in other mosques except the mosque of the Ka'ba.
Chapter 96: The Masjid whose foundation was founded upon piety is the Masjid of the Prophet saws in Al-Madinah
'Abd al-Rabman b. Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (Allah be pleased with him) happened to pass by me and I said to him. How did you hear your father making mention of the mosque founded on Piety? He said: My father said: I went to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as he was in the house of one of his wives, and said: Messenger of Allah, which of the two mosques is founded on piety? Thereupon he took a handful of pebbles and threw them on the ground and then said: This is the very mosque of yours (mosque at Medina). He (the narrator) said: I bear witness that I heard your father making mention of it.
