اُردوEn
عَنْ فَرْوَةَ بْنِ مُسَيْكٍ الْمُرَادِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ أَرْضًا عِنْدَنَا يُقَالُ لَهَا أَرْضُ أَبْيَنَ هِيَ أَرْضُ رِفْقَتِنَا وَمِيرَتِنَا وَإِنَّهَا وَبِئَةٌ أَوْ قَالَ إِنَّ بِهَا وَبَاءً شَدِيدًا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَعْهَا عَنْكَ فَإِنَّ مِنَ الْقَرَفِ التَّلَفَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Farwah bin Maseek Muradi (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I said, "O Messenger of Allah! We have a land called Abin, it is a fertile area and our grain and so on is also obtained from it, but it is afflicted with plague and there is a severe outbreak of plague there." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Leave it, for being near the plague is destruction."
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … This narration is weak. Nevertheless, if residing in a certain area is not a virtuous act, and there are such epidemics present in it that truly affect a person’s body, then that area should be abandoned. Due to living in such a place, a person may also fall into superstition and begin attributing such diseases to his land and region, rather than to Allah Ta’ala.
