e Special Qualities of Madinah 1- It is a sacred precinct and a safe haven between �Ayr and Thawr�two mountains�so the trees therein are not to be cut and the game are not to be hunted. The Messenger of Allah ? said: �Madinah is a sacred precinct�that which is between �Ayr and Thawr�whosoever does evil therein, or shelters an evil doer, then upon him is the curse of Allah, the angels and mankind altogether.� [ Agreed upon.] The Messenger of Allah ? made it sacred just as Ibrahim made Makkah sacred. On the authority of �Abdullah ibn Zaid who said: �The Messenger of Allah ? said: �Indeed, Ibraheem made Makkah a sacred precinct and prayed for it, and I have made Madinah a sacred precinct as Ibraheem did with Makkah, and I prayed for it in its Mudd and Saa� (i.e. for its trade to increase) as Ibraheem ? had done (for Makkah.)�� [ Source: Bukhari.]
