Medina Protection

"Narrated Abu Huraira:\n\nThe 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.\n\nNarrated Sufyan b. Abu Zuhair:\n\nI 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.\"\n\nNarrated Abu Huraira:\n\nAllah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, \"Verily, Belief returns and goes back to Medina as a snake returns and goes back to its hole (when in danger).\"\n\nNarrated Sa`d:\n\nI heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, \"None plots against the people of Medina but that he will be dissolved (destroyed) like the salt is dissolved in water.\"\n\nNarrated Usama:\n\nOnce 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.\"\n\nNarrated Abu Bakra:\n\nThe 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.\"\n\nNarrated Abu Huraira:\n\nAllah'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.\"\n\nNarrated Anas bin Malik:\n\nThe 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.\"\n\nNarrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri:\n\nAllah'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.'\"\n\nNarrated Zaid bin Aslam from his father:\n\n`Umar said, O Allah! Grant me martyrdom in Your cause, and let my death be in the city of Your Apostle."
