حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ وَأَبُو کُرَيْبٍ جَمِيعًا عَنْ أَبِي أُسَامَةَ وَاللَّفْظُ لِأَبِي بَکْرٍ وَابْنِ نُمَيْرٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنْ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ کَثِيرٍ حَدَّثَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ أَنَّ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ إِنِّي حَرَّمْتُ مَا بَيْنَ لَابَتَيِ الْمَدِينَةِ کَمَا حَرَّمَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ مَکَّةَ قَالَ ثُمَّ کَانَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ يَأْخُذُ وَقَالَ أَبُو بَکْرٍ يَجِدُ أَحَدَنَا فِي يَدِهِ الطَّيْرُ فَيَفُکُّهُ مِنْ يَدِهِ ثُمَّ يُرْسِلُهُ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 3340
Abu Sa'id Maula al-Mahri reported that he came to Abu Sa'id al-Khudri during the nights (of the turmoil) of al-Barrah, and sought his advice about leaving Medina, and complained of the high prices prevailing therein and his large family, and informed him that he could not stand the hardships of Medina and its rugged surrounding. He said to him: Woe to you; I will not advise you to do it, for I heard Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: No one will endure hardships of Medina without my being an intercessor or a witness on his behalf on the Day of Resurrectiar), if he is a Muslim.
