(وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ آخَرَ) بِنَحْوِهِ وَزَادَ: ”كَمَا حَرَّمَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ حَرَمَهُ، لَا يُقْطَعُ عِضَاهَا، وَلَا يُقْتَلُ صَيْدُهَا، وَلَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا أَحَدٌ رَغْبَةً عَنْهَا إِلَّا أَبْدَلَهَا اللَّهُ خَيْرًا مِنْهُ، وَالْمَدِينَةُ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ، وَلَا يُرِيدُهُمْ أَحَدٌ بِسُوءٍ إِلَّا أَذَابَهُ اللَّهُ ذَوْبَ الرَّصَاصِ فِي النَّارِ، أَوْ ذَوْبَ الْمِلْحِ فِي الْمَاءِ“
. (Second chain) A similar hadith is narrated, however, with this addition: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Just as Ibrahim (peace be upon him) made the Haram a sanctuary so that no shrub should be cut from here, no hunting should be done here, and whoever leaves here turning away, Allah brings someone better than him in his place. Whoever intends evil against the people of Madinah, Allah will melt him as brass is melted in fire or as salt dissolves in water.
