Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) 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.

We have nothing except the Book of Allah and this written paper from the Prophet (wherein is
written:) Medina is a sanctuary from the 'Air Mountain to such and such a place, and whoever
innovates in it an heresy or commits a sin, or gives shelter to such an innovator in it will incur the
curse of Allah, the angels, and all the people, none of his compulsory or optional good deeds of
worship will be accepted. And the asylum (of protection) granted by any Muslim is to be secured
(respected) by all the other Muslims; and whoever betrays a Muslim in this respect incurs the curse of
Allah, the angels, and all the people, and none of his compulsory or optional good deeds of worship
will be accepted, and whoever (freed slave) befriends (take as masters) other than his manumitters
without their permission incurs the curse of Allah, the angels, and all the people, and none of his
compulsory or optional good deeds of worship will be accepted.
